slicker

[jaaron]

I've always wondered about slicker:

Slicker: A collection of utilities which provide alternative for our beloved kicker. Slicker consists of three primary items Cards, the Slider, and a Task-bar. Which can be used in conjunction with each other, and Kicker, or utilized by themselves.

It always seemed like such an innovative idea, I'm surprised it hasn't ended up in the mainsteam of KDE yet.
