     * I've seen something like this in OS X recently: whenever drag-and-drop is initiated in Finder, [[http://www.techteam.gr/mac/screenshots/40050.jpg|a black drop area pops up]] at th edge of the screen. Files can be dropped there and users can later drag them from the area back into another folder or application. We could do something similar. Here are some ideas:      * I've seen something like this in OS X recently: whenever drag-and-drop is initiated in Finder, [[http://www.techteam.gr/mac/screenshots/40050.jpg|a black drop area pops up]] at th edge of the screen.

       * Have a simple D-Bus service that allows to store/retrieve a list of URIs (potentially grouped by an application or task specific ID). Have a standalone application or a panel plugin implement this to visualize the files that are in memory. Maybe split up the visualization into a "copy" and a "cut" area. In Thunar, add URIs to this storage if Ctrl+C/Ctrl+X are pressed or whatever other methods there are to initiate a copy/cut operation. Heck, maybe even allow arbitrary objects to be stored instead of just URIs, perhaps using a semantic temporary storage. We could also think about defining standard storage group IDs for common purposes.  --- //[[jannis@xfce.org|Jannis Pohlmann]] 2011/09/20 15:40//       * Have a simple D-Bus service that allows to store/retrieve a list of URIs (potentially grouped by an application or task specific ID).

 +    * I second this propose. In my case every workspace has their own fuction (one for web, another for communication tools, third one for development tools and so on) and displaying applications according to the workspace makes it very fast and easy for me to find out the correct application. I'm currently using Tint2 (multi_desktop mode) instead of xfce-panel because of this feature. //[[eyemonen@wippies.com|eyemonen]] 2012/12/04 12:46//
 +  * **Change default window shadows**
 +    * Xfwm4 window shadows are almost symmetrical, which doesn't look right with most of the Gtk themes. Also, many themes needlessly override these settings, preventing users from setting their own values. See https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8408 for more information.  --- //[[ndrwrdck@gmail.com|Andrzej]] 2012/02/08 10:55//
