The problem you're addressing (if any)
For #5677 we created a host of new features to eventually roll-out in the app menu. Among the most popular, were enabling folks to keep a "Favorites" menu, and to "pin" apps to the top of their sub-menu for each qube.
Describe the solution you'd like
For #6366 I pitched this redesign, that can elegantly extend to support the two GUI features this Issue was created to track.
Where is the value to a user, and who might that user be?
Users can, today, mark an app a Favorite, on the command line. This is regrettably not even discoverable to many technical users. For both technical and non-technical users, it will make the ability to customize one's app menu for the most efficient per-user use, a breeze—which will make Qubes a more overall useful and pleasant OS to use on a regular basis.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Keeping it all on the command-line. Which would be a drag.
