I have made a patch for this. It adds entries in ROX-Filer options GUI
for Top,Bottom,Left,Right panels.
ROX-Session's RunROX script should be changed so that "-b Default"
option is removed (this is taken care of by rox itself, as "Default" is
the default value of panel_bottom).

A more elegant widget than entries would be drop-down menus that shows
all available panels, and entries for "NONE" and "NEW", where NEW brings
up a dialog asking for a new name. Or maybe use a combo-entry-box that
allows setting to empty (for no panel) and then simply enter a panelname
manually to create one if not existent...

This is somewhat over my skills though, as I'm totally unexperienced in
gtk programming with C. But I think my attached patch is better than
having to copy RunROX to ~/Choices/ROX-Session/RunROX and edit it to use
the panel layout you want!

Patch attached.
