The ULTIMATE Apple Watch Face... 16 Custom App Zones

Wouldn't it be great to launch your favorite Apple Watch Apps right from the face?
One of the great things about the Apple Watch is all the different ways you can customize the face. Some of the faces look like a traditional watch, and others look distinctly modern.
Most of the faces have at least a couple of customizable zones, where you can select from a number of options such as Stopwatch, Date, Timer, Stock Market, Temperature, Alarms, etc. What's great about those zones is they don't just show you the information; when you tap them, they launch an associated App.
For example, if you tap the current temperature, it launches the full Weather App. Tapping the Date launches the calendar.
So, I wondered...
Why not let people put launch icons for all their favorite Apps in the corners of the front face too? In fact, why not put 12 more right on the Face itself... one for each hour?
That's 16 of your favorite Apps on the front face, without adding any clutter. In fact, it looks pretty good.
Since most people have more than 16 Apps, you can still hit the crown to get Apps menu, but today's idea lets you put your favorites right there on the face. It's like the Dock in iOS and OS X, where you put just your favorites.
Let's hope Apple puts a feature like this in a future update. If nothing else, just allowing us to put our favorite Apps in the existing zones would be a great start.
