[Panel-devel] Applet Manager Dialog

[Chani]

I've got the code updating reliably now. it's still ugly and can't remove 
applets.

I'm kinda thinking that there isn't really space to just toss a 'remove' link 
in there without reorganising or resizing stuff a bit...

this destruction signal is annoying me; I need to find the applet's name, and 
by this point I can't do anything with the pointer I'm handed from the 
destroyed() signal.

seems there are three options:
1) search my hash for a value matching the pointer (slooow)
2) keep an extra hash where the pointers are the keys instead of the values 
(seems like a waste of space)
3) change the Applet code so that it emits a signal with its name() when it's 
about to be destroyed
