Maybe I'm missing something, but the "configure Objectdock" icon seems redundant since  objectdock configuration options can be accessed by right-clicking anywhere on a dock, giving  "this dock", "remove entry" and "dock entry properties" with its full sub-menu.

I try to keep my docks as compact as possible by grouping related applications on fly-out menus and by also dropping the "configure objectdock" icon.

i'm not that short on ram, but it seems sensible to reduce dock resource use as every added icon likely increases ram consumption.

Fly-out menus don't necessarily conserve ram, but surely dropping icons does?

So...is the "configure objectdock" icon unnecessary?
