Hey there,

Yeah, we rather waved our hands on this one - it's a pity we can solve
the menu suituation once and for all. The more in flux it is, the
greater it'll hurt us in the end.

We just have to decide which is more desireable -

		o gman's Home
		o Home Folder

> - Network servers looks out of place (no advice about where to put it)

Should go exactly in the same place as the Home Folder item [whatever we
end up calling it]. Perhaps it should only be a link in the Go menu
within Nautilus? :/

> - s/Log Out/Log Out.../ (word "possibly" was used)

The problem is if you don't have access to shutdown, restart, suspend
then you won't see the options. Despite this, you still have a
confirmation dialog, but that only appears if you have 'Prompt on
logout' checked in the Sessions dialog. I think, based on this, I'd
prefer to keep it as it is.

Come on, who seriously uses them these days?

ROCK! Dude, that is very cool.

I think it would be a useful thing to do - I don't think there are too
many people on that alias to spam huge amounts of people.

Yep, it's probably a good idea to carry out discussion on the relevant
bugs..

And thanks a million for doing this - awesome stuff..
