Hi all,<br><br>This is related to the results of the FOSDEM brainstorm session, mainly the Context View idea, which I'm re-branding the Center Pane.<br><br>Now that the context browser is in the center and always visible it might be a opportunity to rethink it's concept.
<br>This is related to music stores because I don't think the current tree view browser will scale when music stores get a bigger catalog. Consider a music store that has a web-like interface, it's easier to browse, looks better, albumart, browsing through a catalog based on related artists, genres, recommendations, etc.
<br>To implement a store like that we need screen real estate. The only place I can think of that we have that is in the center pane.<br><br>Now what is interesting is that, when implemented right, context and music stores are just themes for the Center Pane. A reminder: Themes control Widget that display data supplied by Scripts.
<br>The things we can show in the center pane are only limited by the complexity of the widget it uses.<br><br>To tiered to explain more now, will mail the list again tomorrow.<br><br>Greets<br>Stecchino<br>
