I don't reject the concept in whole.  The Control Center part of it looks like 
a slightly better way of representing gnome's control-center, plus a few 
other things.  How does this scale for KDE, or any other window manager?

What I don't like is the slab menu that is pretty much modeled to be the 
default XP start menu thing.  For THAT I haven't seen much useful reasoning 
as to why it should be used rather than the menu system that we use, of 
upstream Gnome.  This is what feels like copying for copying sake.
