Without any irony [:) ;)] this sounds like a plan!

On the other hand, I forgot to write that the desktop selection dialog
also have to work in text-mode (ncurses). I can't imagine any (easy)
implementation :( - Ncurses work with 80x25 characters screen.

Ah, I have missed this requirement. Well actually alphabetical order is
not so bad and I cant imagine something more complex that a list in
Ncurses mode.

Is it possible to make different desktop selections in Ncurses and GUI?
