Yes, this would be great. The next best thing (what I'm using now) is
Backmenu without the Program manager. It of course does not give you all
the great options of X, but if you are most productive in a command line
environment, and don't want icons getting in the way, this is a great way
to go. I just changed my shell=progman to shell=backmenu.
