Comment (by humdinger):

 Also to consider: moving all apps one level up, i.e. out of the
 Applications subfolder, we'd lose some vertical space. The submenu has
 opened quite a bit more to the top of the screen, while the list of apps
 would then start at the bottom of the Deskbar.\\
 There may also be an added slight delay (at least on first click) to
 populate the app list.

 If the "Recent applications" menu worked correctly, over reboots and with
 stuff from other partitions than /boot, the users would find all the apps
 they regularly use there, and wouldn't have to hunt through the "all-apps-
 list" all the time.\\
 Add to that sticky apps, and type-ahead-filtering (a killer enhancement
 for drill-down-navigation!) and we'd be going in the right direction.
