A useful desktop
 

Hello folks,

I'm toying around writing a desktop in QML2/Qt 5 for fun, Maemo5 inspired, possibly eventually to drop on top of Mer to have a useful desktop for my kitchen.

Anyway, while it's a long way off completion, I'm seeking ideas on interaction/interactivity as to how to make a mobile desktop more useful to you, especially WRT desktop widgets and stuff. Fire away!

If you're curious as to what I have so far, take a look at these, arranged newest to oldest:

Just an example. For anywhere I feel like putting something mobileish :)

Another screenshot, demonstrating that widgets can scale (and still rotate), as well as the new photo widget:
