In any case empty nodes are of no use. I know you can hide some of them in skin settings, but I was not able to hide tv-shows f.e..

And if it's possible, you could add the "pictures" node (and probably also programs) to the main menu in case live-tv is disabled or some other node (like tv-shows) is not used/empty.

• Pictures has no extra infolabels on the Home screen to show recent pictures or how many pictures are in your library. So it would be a very boring menu to look at by comparison. Nothing more than a big button to take you to the Pictures page. The same is true for Programs and a few others.
  
• Custom menus is an idea that has been brought up a few times before, but the problem with it is what icon to display with the button? I suppose I could code a menu to have them select from a range of icons, but suffice to say that all of that is an extremely involved coding process and something I'd prefer to tackle for XBMC Gotham. Baby steps.

• it performs really well on the PI, congratulations!
  
• I'm missing a OSD keyboard in the search dialog. If you don't want to show it permanently in cases one has a keyboard, you could simply add a small icon left of the input field to toggle the OSD keyboard and give it focus. But I think usually the setting Setting->System->Input devices->"Remote control sends keyboard presses" is used to turn the OSD keyboard on and off (although I don't really understand what this setting really means)
  
• It would be nice to be able to group "movies" and "tv-shows" in one "video" node, like it's the case in Confluence. That would give one the possibility to show other main menu items instead (in case you manage to add my proposal above and bring the pictures and programs to main menu). Having this "Videos" node would also allow users that don't use the library but rely on UPNP file shares to use this skin in a nice way (I know, all the possibilities in XBMC are a nightmare to consider ). If you want to give such a "Videos" node a try you could have a look at Xeebo about the "submenu items" to add.
