Comment(by eben):

 This looks pretty good. The primary palette shouldn't have the "start new"
 label on it, though. The primary palette, when attached to an object (as
 opposed to a button) is meant to serve as an identifier of that object.
 This was true in the design for resuming recent, since the activity name
 and the instance name identified it. Here it just shows a generic action,
 and should be omitted.

 I'm not sure why we'd need to remove the alt key behavior. The intention
 was to allow kids to choose their preferred mode, and then access the
 other mode temporarily by holding the alt key. If we change the default,
 and even if we don't allow a choice, that behavior could stay.

 I won't hold my breath for menu grouping labels as in the original
 designs....some day...
