Then we wouldn't need different items when in windowed mode ("Install in
Deskbar") and simply removing the checkmark in Deskbar mode saves us from
calling the item there "Remove from Deskbar". "Show" sounds to me less
anthropomorphized and cute than "Live".
It's not really a matter of anthropomorphics though ; the use of "Live"
was specifically intended with the connotations that it persists there
after the app goes away. "Show in Deskbar" doesn't really have that same
implication, and could leave it ambiguous if the deskbar icon's going to
stay there when the app exits or not. Not all Deskbar replicants are
persistent after all (i.e. status indicator for an IM app would not be).
