I personally would like to see the emblems concept expanded to fill the 'funky' icon role for default speciality folders. So create special default folders like photos and movies and documents... and attach the associated emblem by default. The current set of emblems would have to be expanded a little or perhaps rethought a bit more. But I would also find it interesting to expand the concept of emblem so that users can tag other folders as 'document' or 'movie' folders or whatever in such a way that you can easily search for documents and movies in all the folders tagged with the associated emblem, in a pre-Storage enabled world. Expand that even further so you can have systemwide tagged 'music' folders so users can query their userspace Music emblem tagged folders as well as systemwide folders tagged as Music. -jef -- Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
