Well no answer so far... but I took some time to play on this, and have
some mockups to propose. Please test!
Everything is on the ticket, under the title "Prototypes":
https://tails.boum.org/todo/tails-greeter:_revamp_UI/
Download everything in
https://tails.boum.org/todo/tails-greeter:_revamp_UI/mockups/
or better clone the git, go to the directory and:
$ ./mockup.py [-v <variant>] [-p]
Dependencies: gtk3, python gobject introspection (basically debian wheezy)
My goals for the interface was:
- read in "natural" order: top to bottom
- no hidden windows/options
- easy to adapt to right-to-left languages RTL
- inspired/similar to GNOME3 "system perferences"
I'd like to hear about:
- your overall impression?
- should keyboard selectable independently from locale in one click?
- your navigation experience?
- where should the locales box be?
Cheers
