which applications the user chooses to have on the menu bars

which items the user wants to appear on the gnome menu

I think there should be a LAMP meta-package providing installation and quick configuration for Apache, MySQL and PHP. After having installed the meta-package i should be able to have a running production environment, even if basically configured. This idea can surely be extended to a PAMP stack, with PostgreSQL, so there might be a PAMP meta-package too.

The current services applet, while sufficient for disabling and enabling services (in the current run-level?) could be made more complete by adding functionality similar to that in Fedora/Red Hat.

Features could include such as which run-level the administrator is modifying services for, and starting, stopping and restarting services from the applet.
