    This is an open suggestion. Both approach are feasible and realistic for both sides, Parallels developers and the industry demands to enable Parallels as a standard in the industry.

    1. Guest Application shortcuts
    2. Scripting support

    1. Guest Application shortcuts. I would like to see on upcoming versions of Parallels Desktop for Mac, shortcuts on the host Desktop of applications residing in the Guest that a user can click on it and automatically open just the application on the Host in coherence mode. This saves time and money on users having to browse trough applications on the VMs.
    Picture the scenario where you can have VM applications shortcuts from different OS (VMs) on the host mac Application folder.

    2. Scripting support. One way to startup a user's working environment would be to setup a script that opens specific applications from different Guests with just one click. Different applications, different OS in just one click. The coolness of the concept is to automate the function of starting up single applications in coherence mode from different VMs. Also Mac servers can startup this scripts as part of the startup scripts and policies.
