You were not disccouraging Ivan. In fact i'm planning to have the entire
environment up and some preliminary code working before the GSoC starts (it
is allowed, right?).

In the next weeks I will study some docks (mac, awn, 3rd party windows
docks) and try to figure what features I should implement.
