Description Georg 2011-10-13 04:46:58 UTC
Hello,

I love the Gnome 3 Desktop and I'm getting better in using all it's shortcuts and ideas.

But one thing I would suggest: In the overview of all open windows it's getting very confusing when you have open an document with text, the terminal and firefox with a code paste. 
So, I just looking for Firefox but click on the document..because it looks familiar. 

My idea: Just put the application icon next to the preview. Everybody is used to the icons, like Firefox, terminal or Libre Office. Maybe it safes some time searching for the right application.

I'm just a User, this is my first request for a feature. I can't do it on my own, just want you to know, maybe somebody likes the idea, that is was Linux is about? Everybody can contribute. 


Thanks for the Attention!

So long. Georg.
