I suggest doing something similar to iTunes with the dock Ctrl+Click / Right Click menu. See mockup below:
I would like to propose that an option be added that allows Parallels to run in the menu bar rather than forcing a dock icon. For those of us that use Virtue with Parallels, it would be nice to have a more seamless (and separated) interface between the OSes. Is this possible?
"Open Recent" (sub-menu) & "Connect/Disconnect Device" (submenu) would be cool too. (Though maybe that's too many menu's in a CM? The Device one would at least be worth it so you can regain Mac OS control of a device without switching all the way to PD) I would love a Dock-CM feature, especially "Pause/Resume".
