That was my point.  Shouldn't there be such an option?  As well as an
option to manage what favorites to add?  The only way I know to add to
favorites is to drag an application icon from elsewhere.

To take it one step further, wouldn't it be nice if users have the
option of displaying either favorites or recents?  Personally, I have no
use for "recents."  I never use them except when it is an option within
an application, such as OpenOffice or AcroRead.  If I had the option to
not display recents, that would free up alot more space to store
favorites.  

Also for the general tab, how about an option for whether to display
icons or not?
