Is it possible to remove the volume control desk bar replicant?
Yes. One way is to run Media preferences and uncheck the checkmark which
is somewhere in there.
Is there any guard in place for misbehaving deskBar replicants?
Interesting question. I am pretty sure there is no such thing, but there
should be. At the moment, deskbar replicants are snippets of code loaded
from another application, then a BView is unarchived placed into the
Deskbar view hierarchy and the foreign code runs within the normal
BWindow event loop as if the BView were part of the Deskbar's code to
begin with. Maybe it is possible to change BShelf in such a way that it
can detect and prevent lock ups, I haven't looked into it. It would be a
worthwhile project for sure if anyone is interested.
Best regards,
