Right... forgot to mention that part, as I assumed that was known (it
was discussed earlier in the thread, I believe).

The menu from xfdesktop is the only portion of xfdesktop I really want
-- I really wish it could be separated out or put into xfwm. However,
since I also want my pinboard and iconify-to-pinboard, I use ROX... and
another little app called deskmenu (I believe it's originally from the
oroborus project?); since I'm on Debian, I always have an up-to-date
list of my applications available in this menu, so I get to have my cake
and eat it too.
