Ubuntu Unity will come by default with a Global Menu meaning that the menu of application will be shown in the Unity panel and not the application window. In Unity 10.10 clicking on the name of the application in the menu panel doesn't actually do anything. In the global menu applet for Gnome 2x clicking on the name of the application (top screenshot) brings up a window list. I think that this space could be used more effectively. The two mock-ups show what I have in mind. The menu shows when the application was launched, how long its been running, how much of the CPU its using, the amount of memory its using, end the process killing it immediately as well as allowing the user to report bugs (maybe thorough launchpad), rate the application through the Ubuntu software centre ( a new feature that should be coming to the software centre soon) and to uninstall the application without opening the software centre. When the uninstall option is pressed then a warning and password dialogue appear before the application is uninstalled (requiring root password). Let me know what you think ~ Peace - w"salaam

The mockup is similar to how the menus will be displayed in Ubuntu 11.04 with the exception of the application name not doing anything in the panel.

putting those statistics in the main menu sounds like a great idea. however, i dont think something as critical and rarely used as an uninstall item should be included. rather, we can try something like windows 7 jumplists: display common actions such as play/pause for media players, current status for messenger apps etc. maybe something which detects the (x) most commonly used items in the menu for each application.
great idea though, try submitting as an idea on the gnome-globalmenu page. [link] =D

I think that kind of functionality should be built into the Unity Launcher instead of the menu but I do agree adding the uninstall option to the menu may not be the best idea but it makes the process of uninstalling a piece of software much faster and easier.

I really like this idea, at the moment the application name doesn't actually show in the panel in Unity 10.10 which I find somewhat inconsistent.
