I somehow like this idea. There could be 5 or 6 main-groups (task groups) and 
maybe one group "Other Tasks" for things which don't belong to the 
main-groups. The task-text (eg "Use the Internet") could be implemented as a 
tooltip.
If our aim is a task-oriented-menu with way fewer entries then know - why do 
we need a KMenu for holding the task-groups? If the groups were directly on 
the panel everything would be one level (mouse-click) closer to the user.

servus,
Michael
