A lot of people are suggesting interesting extensions to xftree. What
Edscott should do is implement a scripting interface. Provide a
scripting language so that people could implement their own extensions.
LISP would be a good language for this. I can imagine all sorts of
useful extensions:

	* an editor
	* file encryption
	* mail reader
	* news reader
	* web browser
	* office suite
	* nuclear reaction simulations
	* kitchen sink

At this point it would have 50% of the functionality of Emacs.

;-)

If I wanted bloatware, I'd be using GNOME.
