Patched hildon-desktop on Maemo 5 (single-column task switcher + paginated launcher)

A N900 running a patched version of hildon-desktop. What's still missing is a snap-to-page feature for the launcher. I'm doing it manually in this video, but an ideal version of this would automatically snap into place (like on the MeeGo launcher or the iPhone springboard). The same snapping could be implemented for the task switcher. There's also a different version of the patch that has a two-column task switcher, but still with pretty big previews.

See http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=63419 and http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=63460 for the patches and screenshots.

here`s a nice idea... single tap (of the dashboard virtual button)--> modified task switcher...double tap--> default task switcher ;)
