Ubuntu HUD Intenterface? Sublime already there!

Mark Shuttleworth's recent post about the planned Ubuntu Heads Up Display has stirred up a bucket load of interest. See here for what it looks like:

The Ubuntu Intenterface!

Name apart, I like the look of it, quite a lot. And I think that's because it's a very good idea I already use: the keystroke launcher GNOME Do, and the command palette in the glorious Sublime Text editor.

The Sublime Text Command Palette, kind of familiar ;)

What I find interesting is that this is a keyboard feature, not really a touchy-feely thing.

Looking forward to trying it out for real :)
