The resemblance with the old startmenu...

Is not enough yet.

from Stardock Forums

The start menu looks good and feels good, that's the first step, but now some common shortcuts are pretty much needed and that's basically what all the people is missing from the current Windows 8 start panel

Please put these in and all windows 8 start menu is almost perfect.

(The not so priority ones and I think the most complicated, are this:)

That's not going to be possible, at least not until they design a start menu from scratch.

At present it just takes the metro interface and displays it in a small window, starting at the app list. Stardock cannot modify this directly, they'd have to design a new start menu from scratch. The only option is to add these things to the right click menu, which they have already started. You'll notice shutdown and run are already there.

JUst to be more clear, it is the app list from the start screen, which is in effect the display of the start menu folders including things pinned, etc.
