This touches on a question I've had since the announcement of OS08, which is:

How much flexibility will we have when it comes to customizing the home screen? For example, right now, I don't use the 'contacts' icon and I'd love to replace it with, say, an icon for one of my apps. Plus the ability to customize the icons and other elements (a la ThemeMaker) would be nice.

What say you Texrat? Will this be possible?
