In ZX Opal the System Inspector is invoked by pressing the EDIT key, or CAPS SHIFT + 1.

It's been in the works for about a year in its current form, not continuously, but something I do on weekends every other month. In fact I've been tinkering with the #ZXGUI toolkit for a couple of years. Not because it's too difficult, but because I really enjoy the design process more than I enjoy its maintenance once it becomes real. You can see old drafts of the GUI toolkit under #zxgui. ZX Opal is the name of the OS, and #ZXGUI is the name of the toolkit and the GUI desktop.

Once it's released I would hope others to help maintain it.
