Originally! I was thinking about...
* menu button with string
* Application's sub-menu as in "Menu Bar"
* Preferences & Administration into something like "Add to Panel" window
* Deskbar into standalone window (replace Alt+F2)
* "End Session" to have "Lock Screen" button

[ $logo Menu  ]

but then it would be too much to ask & I can't claim I present good
solution!

sorry to make it look so stupid... sorry for misunderstood Seb.
