How about the ability to select a category without having to mouse click? Like just hover over it and it becomes selected. The above suggestions are good.

Let me have a window that is wider than 20 icons wide. I have all my apps on one tab and the width limit is annoying. 2. Hot-key will not recognize any modifier other than Command, let me use Option, Control, Shift, Tab as well. 3. Have a preference to make Overflow replace the systems Command-Tab application switcher. > Overflow is that good. My three comments / wish list.

If you'd cancel this OverFlow removes all references to the shares (showing only '?' symbols). Apart from this, it's a great Dock alternative!

Also, What I'd love to see but probably nobody else would want is dynamic Overflow tabs. EX: - I have four tabs currently. I'd love to be able to have say 16 apps on the 1st tab, 12 apps on the second tab, 20 apps on tab 3, and 8 apps on tab 4 (with no black for missing apps on the smaller tabs). Right now if I do this I would have extra room (black space) on tabs 1,2, and 4. Have the window expand and contract to the various amount of apps on a given tab. Probably more work that it's worth though... What configs you looking for with testing?

It's fairly easy to hack the application yourself to remove the Dock icon. There's a Mac OS X Hints http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20010701191518268 Note that it removes the applications menu bar as well, but with Overflow most of what you would use the menu bar for can be accessed through keyboard shortcuts. @Jimmy.

Right now I have to use 16x16 pixel icons just because two categories contain many applications. 2) There's no preference to get rid of the Dock icon like Quicksilver does. I only use the hotkey so the Dock icon is just a waste of space. Otherwise it's a nice application. My two main gripes with Overflow are:
