This will be the discussion thread for it, some notes:
- a first package is made and usable
- Im thinking to change the name, more like removing the "tool" part
umm .....
- elive-configurator
- elive-Swiss-ArmyKnife
- elive-settings-center
- elive-á-la-carte (I like this one
) - elive-feature-center

maybe elive-configurator let's KISS and with a meaning of its original (full?) purpose

Maybe elpanel?

Haha nah, elpanel had a very specific / known (and rare) design, I have revived it in the past, maybe is not hard to revive than interface since there was a good amount of work put on it
But the concept / idea is very similar to elpanel, isn't @triantares ?
Yeah, actually that is the way most distros structure a tool-panel/center ..... it's hard to find a very different format.
In our case it was the capabilities that 'yad' has that defines the look. 
Well, at least we have now a functional panel that was not very hard to make 
, going to be included in EliveRetro 
Currently the app looks like this when I open:
Where there's twice the same icon.
The .desktop in /usr/share/applications needs altering in those cases.
-
IMO the 'user configurations' icon should be set to 'preferences-desktop-user'
-
Change 'user switch' icon to 'system-switch-user'
A SIDE NOTE
I had the small dialog window happen to today.
It (sometimes) happens with a full/cramped desktop where I suspect that 'yad' tries to 'dodge' the windows that are already there.
This 'dodging' isn't a yad built-in as it's set to '--center' so my eye is on E16.
Looking back at ancient reviews it's surprising how favorable 'elpanel' was mentioned and then, as app sort of faded away in subsequent releases.
Like I've repeatedly said: Panels or centers like that, are the first 'go-to' to see what's on offer. It's the flag under which the distro sails.

revive elpanel
Elpanel's design would also be great for Retrowave.
