My suggested amendments to Benedikt's proposal. Note: I have not used
XFCE beyond 4.2.3.2, so am not familiar with changes to the launcher
layout, if any.

2nd) WebBrowser
3rd) MailReader
These functions are used my almost everyone I'd imagine, so they should
both be available with a single click.

... unless printer management is now included (as it ought to be) within
the Settings Manager?

Perhaps the Mixer should be next to the MediaPlayer instead?

Absolutely! ie. for HomeDir, WebBrowser, MailReader
