Xffm issues

Hello,
I have some questions about and feature requests for xffm:
1) I'ld appreciate if it somebody can make the special nodes like "Book" (It should be
called "Bookmarks" IMHO) or "Trash" toggleable. I'ld love to have them opened in a
seperate directory (old xftree behaviour) Some of those things I don't use at all and
therefore they should be an opportunity to turn them off.
2) The right click menu is well structured though I liked the old xftree menu more since
you could do all operations concerning files with one single and quick click. What about
getting back to the old menu? Or at least have a decission between both "modes"?
3) Icons in the menu bar aren't really fancy. And getting rid of them means getting rid of
ALL icons. Thats not a good way IMHO.
4) The "About xffm" screen should be displayed in its window instead of "scrolling"
through at the bottom.
5) Do you really need the arrows on the left side to navigate the files? I don't use ...
mind making up an option to turn them off?
6) Using Shell variables isn't really the proper way of storing options.
Okay, all these proposals are very subjective and were rushing through my mind when using
xffm. They are just ment to improve the way xffm works and for improving the way the users
work with it. Thanks for your consideration.
Bye,
Moritz
