I am sure we can add more details to the mockup. I am not too sure by what
you meant by set of tool for interaction.

In any case, that is really nice if you want to take care of braindump in the future. I have a \
couple of ideas, but I don't think I will have time to work on them. As far as I am \
concern, the UI of braindump went as far as it was possible within the flake framework, and \

A couple of monthes ago, I started working on trying to describe what I would want user \
interractions to be for braindump in the KDE wiki: <a \

<br> I didn't go very far on that. But my main idea for Braindump is to behave like a \
virtual whiteboard, and rather than having the current interraction model where you have to \
drag&drop shapes on the canvas, I would want a set a tool (draw lines, text) and use that \
to do all the interraction. I am not sure sure if I am very clear :) But maybe I can try to \
