Package: gnome-shell
Version: 3.4.2-4
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
It would be good if it were possible to add an application to the desktop by
right clicking from within the activities overview, just as you can with add to
favourites. At the moment it seems very difficult to add program launchers to
the desktop from anywhere within gnome, and this would allow users who want
that functionality to do it in an easy and intuitive way. It would not have bad
side effects as it would not effect people who don't want it, and, since there
are only two options in that right-click menue at the moment, it would not
over-complicate the menu.
