Areas that may benefit from web components:

• Panels
  Standardized look and less worrying about rendering issues of scrollbars.

• Search
  Simplified interaction and aspects of it become more encapsulated. Its very messy right now and hard to add too

• File Menus
  Work well already but could result in easier handling of mouse events.
