It would be neat if the tools button in the home ribbon would have two sections like the session list button...
When clicking the upper half this could launch your most beloved external program directly without popping up the list - which will be left for the lower area... Of course this would also imply another checkbox to select one tool application as the "master".
BTW: I think it would be also handy when a second click on the upper half of the session list button would close the session list window again - just like a toggle.
Maybe you can consider adding these two "minor" tweaks in one of the next maintenance builds?
