When I install Activities I do so through 'sugar-install-bundle', 
not through the Journal.  In this proposal, I would be left without 
a GUI listing of the Activities installed on my system.  [I believe 
a customization key does not journalize the Activities it installs, 
either.]

My perception of the list view in Home is "here is an user interface 
specifically suited for the manipulation of activity bundles".  I'd 
prefer to delete/upgrade/install activities through here, rather 
than through Journal.  [The other views of Home show activity labels 
only with hovering - I have way too many activities installed for me 
to try to remember what each icon represents.]
