Me neither.  I run IceWM sans the "dock" and have
never missed it once.  The menu can be brought up
w/keyboard.  When I run IceWm there's no indication of
which WM I'm even running (just background & gkrellm).

Yeah, that is nice.  It's a great WM and my first
recommendation to anyone wanting to get away from the
bloaty desk mgrs.
