Solid/Sprint2011/PlacesView

What We want

• Allow the user to have most useful places at their fingertips everywhere / everytime
• Sections: Files, information, Devices, People, Network Shares...
• Made it easy to explore more (show all)
• Add suggestions (future objective)
• Should be predictable and consistent
• Don't make user think, make they find

Possible Roadmap

• Force smart order
• Add sections
• Change defaults
  • Saved searchs
  • More XDG Path
  • Hide Root
• Remove hiding feature (keep it for Root)
• Add manual network section
• Add manual people section
• Allow to tie a place to an activity
• On drop ask if the place should be per application or activity or always seen (just like we do when moving files)
• Mechanism for applications to insert their on app specific apps (Stage showing an "All presentations" place)
• Add suggestion sections

The TODO is NOT in order, but it seems to us like a good start. Maybe we can even change the defaults for 4.7.3
