  • Stuff that could be synced
    • Online Accounts
    • Wallpaper
    • Extensions (maybe using extensions.gnome.org?)

    • List of favourite APPS in the dock
    • Keyboard Shortcuts
    • Nautilus and Epiphany's Bookmarks ??
    • Some other config...

Comments

An homeserver for the sync would be nice (i can do this if the sync is implemented), because a lot of people don't like the idea that the data are on servers on the internet (from google, etc.).

Eventually a good place for this would be the Owncloud integration – if not it would be at least nice to have the ability to do the syncing to an Owncloud instance (ownCloud's abilities for doing this could be expanded by a plugin, if needed).
