So could this be done in a limited way for the desktop only?
Thought of that to, but wouldn't it interfere with dropdown settings for the widgets and shortcuts?

Looks cool though

Really is a breath of fresh air on this forum

No, it's supposed to be in the same bar with the clock and operator name.
The problem is what would happen to the widget in portrait mode; it should dissappear but I donmt know how this is possible.

Anyway I don't think it's possible to add a widget there...

Actually, making sure you've backed up the original, replace /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/connui-cellular-operator-home-item.so with another library found in the same folder and restart hildon-home...

This is what Custom Operator Name Widget does (and, incidentally, which I need to stop being a **** and release an update for)

What about having it as very small tabs at the bottom of the page? That would be cool, though they have to be tiny to be useful without becoming a hassle.

Ah yes, the good old Desktop Command Execution Widget... problem solved, nothing left to do :-)

But for the eye-candy we would really need that long-promised new version that allows bitmaps instead of text as button captions...

Yes, I'm looking forward to using this with Matan's nine desktops! Named desktops might also be nice. I would be happy with the switcher just on view 1, and maybe on each other view a widget that brings me back to 1.
