Maybe there are errors or extra complications when nesting panels? because I want to make two panels, in one panel. either horizontally or vertically. and then be able to continue to nest. so a 4x4 would be 3 panels. Shouldn't take much resources... and this would allow for custom shaped items too.

(you get the idea, hopefully, the Icon from Chromium is larger than all of the program starters in windows.. (or if I had the panel horizontal they would also be small)
 
==Version 0.1==
a 4x4 grid, where application launchers are specified explicity, with no drags or drops.
 
==Version 1.0==
