Is there a way to get the Programs tab back?

[1up]

Tried searching this to no avail. In Manila 2D, you had a program tab at the end of the slider bar, replaced on the TP2 by the start menu. After a year using Manila 2D, my thumb instinctively wants to slide down to the program tab, then when I see settings instead, I remember to push the start button. I'd really like that tab back, it's second nature to me.

Registry hack? Cab?
