What do we think could be improved in XFCE, both upstream and Fedora.
- Better thumbnailing (currently things don't have autogenerated thumbnails, sometimes these can be generated by external app, no thumbnails on desktop though)
- There is tumbler did you check if it's running on your machine?
- Thanks for the pointer. That fixes is for supported files (thunar-thumbnailer plugin would be nice to have for other files as well). Does not fix not having thumbnails on desktop. I haven't found it in xfce kickstart, is that even installed by default?

- Implement Tabs/Panels in Thunar
- Afaik it was a design decision not to implement tabs in thunar. Talked to jpohlmann about this quite a while ago
- Make default desktop prettier -- less spacing, no or almost no background in icon labels
- Keyring support in midori
- Time/Calendars applets are a mess -- need one that can do sensibly both.
- Did you have a look at Orage?
- I gave it a second look now. Looks pretty usable. But why is the calendar always in the middle of the screen?
- Did you have a look at Orage?
- Easier dual head (currently only cloning is supported via gui config)
- Better pulseaudio support (even though the sound is generated through pulseaudio, we cannot easily access pa settings)
- Ability to turn tapping on touchpad on (setting it via gnome utils does not seem to make it work under xfce)
- That could be done via synclient, e.g. from terminal.
- I'm looking for gui way. We already have some basic mouse settings, why not add touchpad settings?
- That could be done via synclient, e.g. from terminal.
- Same widget theme for GTK+2 and GTK+3 (currently does not exist)
- Add your suggestion here...
TODO: better formulate the above points and fill out feature requests upstream or downstream (where appropriate).
