I did this by installing cairo-dock - it's a bit of overkill, since I
don't use any of the application icons, but I do use the menu icon at
the left-hand side to find context-based items. This is handy if you
don't know which music programs or games, for example, are installed on
the machine - you don't really mind which they are, you just want the
installed one(s).
