Much simplerer. I'd suggest that each property dialog be for a specific
panel (ie no panel selection dropdown at the top). It's redundant to the
properties context menu item.
I'd suggest the following context menu for the panel:
+------------------------+
| Plugin Name (disabled) |
+------------------------+
| Item Preferences... |
| Remove Item |
+------------------------+
| Panel Preferences... |
| Add to Panel... |
| New Panel |
| Delete this Panel |
+------------------------+
| About this Item... |
| About the Xfce Panel...|
+------------------------+

Resize the fontsize of the clock as the panel is resized.
