I would like to be able to have webian-shell as a windowed application instead of fullscreen.
This could be added to the preference settings when implemented.

As a user I'd like to issue commands via the address bar in natural language so I can tell the browser what I want to do in my own words

GetSatisfaction user says:
Currently, it seems like using all that space just to type in URLs is a bit wasteful. If you'd like another example, also look to Vimperator/Pentadactyl which combines the status bar/URL bar, and autohides the command line (which it uses for pretty much everything). Essentially, make sure the chrome is doing all it can.

Good luck, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about the project on the Mozilla Weblog.

Suggested by Natanael on GetSatisfaction http://getsatisfaction.com/webian/topics/widgetized_desktop

Natanael suggests that all interface elements should be replaceable widgets with APIs, with a gallery of addons which can replace or supplement functionality. Notes that may need dependency management as certain addons may require particular APIs. Suggests looking at KDE's Plasma desktop system and "plasmoids" for inspiration.
