scripts

Hi,

What is our policy regarding the scripts that are included with xfce3?
Do we want to use them for xfce 4 as well? And which ones?

I think they can be very useful and I'd like to be able to depend on
them for the panel. Specifically:

xflock  --  I already use this now

xfterm  --  This is the lazy way to allow users to set different
terminals. I can just use xfterm instead of reading environmental
variables from the panel. Important additional advantage: allows
dropping files and directories on the icon.

xfmountdev  --  cool feature. Don't know how to implement this
otherwise.

Non-panel related, startxfce would be useful too I think.

Any opinions?

Oh, if we include them we can always rename them to <name>4 to not mess
up installations of xfce3.

	Jasper

PS
Can't help it, here's another screenshot. The alpha transparancy thing
for the background image is really cool. The base color can be changed
to fit your theme.
