Looks good, but it's a dashboard for day-to-day use (showing recent 
files, projects, maybe bookmarks, org agenda...), and we're currently 
discussing the start screen for the first time user.

After we're happy with it, we can talk about whether to modify it to 
show extra items, or to show an altogether different dashboard later 
(probably inspired by the above project).
