I want a clock/calendar applet that I can place in the top-right corner of the screen. I want a session switcher in the top-right. I want a notification area for running applications, in the top-right. I also want iconic launchers for popular applications, such as Firefox, and Evolution. I require the ability to add multiple weather applets. 2). The ability to have two or more panels. I require a second panel at the bottom of the screen, containing a task switcher and a workspace manager. I don't give a damn about netbook displays on my desktop, and I've plenty of screen real estate that this is a non-issue. 3). I want sorted menus with an ability to organize applications. I want dedicated menus for system management features. 4). I require a file manager that works, with desktop icons. I want a choice about automounting with no assumptions that I will always be always running a desktop session to automount, etc. In short, I want GNOME 2.x back. It was absolutely perfect for my needs and I had very few non-trivial bug related complaints :) XFCE can be made to do almost all of this, fortunately, and it is a much cleaner and more consistent "upgrade" path in terms of desktop experience.
