First, the new panels is absolutely brilliant and has solved many problems for me.

One simple addition that would make it the best thing since sliced bread would be the ability to customize the text of the "more" link--that way the link could read with something a little more descriptive for the user.

Thanks.

try implementing hook_panels_pane_alter -- that gives you the ability to completely alter a pane prior to it being displayed. You'll have the finished content, title, more link, RSS feed icon, admin links and extra links.

I would really appreciate this feature as well.

+1 for this feature -- I don't know how to do what is suggested in comment #1.

This is of particular concern for accessibility, in which every link on the page should make sense out of context. My users who are using a screen reader find it very difficult to know where to go when finding 8 links on the page simply titled "more". I'd like to be able to change the text individually per content - so "more announcements", "more articles", etc.

Thanks!

Currently this could also be done in panels-pane.tpl.php.

That said, the views content type (the only thing that actually supports the "more" link) could stand to allow customizing the text.

I think this was accidentally moved to ctools. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It's still an accessibility issue in D7 in panels (after looking at the panels.module)

There's best practices in core that can be followed in D7 to make this more accessible to screen readers (and search engines).
