           Summary: menu structure inconsistent with other mobile apps
           Product: Kleopatra Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Windows CE
        OS/Version: Windows CE
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: marcus.brinkmann at ruhr-uni-bochum.de


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Windows CE

other mobile apps have: 

[Navigation Path (eg Home, or Folder)] -> [Context specific menu items for
current navigation path]
[Other context specific menus] -> [Other items]
[AppName] -> [Quit, Minimize, New..., Search..., Work Offline, Configure,
Manual, Report Bug Or Request Feature, About AppName]

In contrast to that, Kleopatra currently has the following structure:

[File] -> [New Certificate, Search certificate, import ,..., Quit]
[View] -> [Refresh]
[Certificates] -> [...]
[Tools] -> [...]
[Configuration] -> [Selftest, Configure...]

I think that a File menu is a bit of a misnomer, and I guess most of the
entries in that menu (at the very least the New, Search and Quit entries) would
be better in a [Kleopatra] top level menu that should also contain the
Configure... item.  The selftest entry is superfluous in a mobile setting where
the environment is more controlled and failing selftests are highly
exceptional.  The View, Certificates and Tools menus are unproblematic.  So
something like this I guess:

[View] -> ...
[Certificates] -> ...
[Tools] -> ...
[Kleopatra] -> [Quit, Minimize, New..., Search..., Work Offline, Configure,
Manual, Report Bug Or Request Feature, About AppName]

Note: The Minimize entry here is translated with the german equivalent to
Switch Application, and it should not be the same minimization that's done by
kleopatra in server mode (which is bad on the mobile device).  Here it refers
to the same function as in the other mobile apps, whatever that is.

A UI expert may have more opinions on the menu structure.
