Vertical app grid

Since the workspaces are vertical the app grid should be too.

I agree, though that might take a while. I doubt it will be an easy thing to change.

Please make this happen weakest thing gnome devs did was make horizontal scroll on here and nautilus a thing period, death to both monstrosities

For a very basic implementation of this all that's needed is:

let appDisplay = Main.overview._overview._controls._appDisplay;
appDisplay._orientation = Clutter.Orientation.VERTICAL;    
appDisplay._grid.layoutManager._orientation = Clutter.Orientation.VERTICAL;
appDisplay._scrollView.set_policy(St.PolicyType.NEVER, St.PolicyType.EXTERNAL);

This makes the app grid scroll vertically, but the page indicators remain at the bottom horizontally and they don't update. It also doesn't allow navigation by clicking on screen edges and when dragging icons the page indicators still appear at the left and right rather than top and bottom. I've tried playing around with those but I haven't really been happy with the results.

imo just disable it for the application grid.
