It may look nice, but it is largely unpolished (backend) and still uses
some of the old Lycoris scripts from when we (former Lycoris) first
implemented it.
I would say a big thumbs down :-(
Just my 2cents.
Fair enough, but I was more interested in the idea (ideal?) behind it
as opposed to the code., as in something in python to centralise
access to the system config tools.
The DEs have their own similiar apps, but I believe (hope) that they
only go as far as configuring DE level things (wallpapers, themes,
window behavior, etc).
As much as I am not a WIndows fan, I think their control panel was a
good idea, which could be expanded upon.
