In addition to my previous post, where I asked if there's a minimum life 
expectancy for the current/upcoming client, I would like to present you 
with a few screen mockups of my suggestion, so everybody can easily 
visualize what I'm talking about.

Again, I fully understand that you need the current look of the X2Go 
client for your thinclient approach, but a commandline switch or a 
compile-time option that triggers when the target platform is Microsoft 
Windows, and changes the look to what I'm suggesting here, would be nice.

Please see the attached PDF for screenshots. (It's 106kb in size, so I 
hope it gets through).

Kind Regards,
Stefan
