Bravo ! Let's hear it for the development of a "super" workbench.
While were tossing ideas, let's also consider,
-  iconization of running programs
-  passing other file icons into running programs
-  better icon maintenance utilities
-  and ---> *FASTER DRAWER OPENING* <---, like by clustering "*.info" files
   so it only takes *ONE* file open and read to get a drawer open.
   ( Oops... maybe this isn't in the workbench, but in the "info" library.)

Sounds like a hot product which, if written well, could achieve a really
high Amiga market penetration. Sheesh...maybe I'll write it.
Although, the folks who *should* write it are the folks who wrote
the original workbench, since they could work from the existing code.
