I like it and I hope it gets to the point where it can be deployed as beta.
And that right panel looks a perfect place for users to place some gadgets

I want to suggest that we give Brandon a lot of slack
here, and be as
supportive as possible.
This is a prototype of a design, which is far better than a mockup of a
design. It is not an actual implementation, but that is totally fine. I
want to see more of this kind of thing, and by being more supportive and
understanding I think we can encourage that.
