When one doesn't know a subject, please don't make stuff up.
Open here at the moment: Terminal - one window open,
That's what a terminal is for
Emacs-on-Aqua - one window,
Well, Enough said, Emacs is a window manager by its own right.
GNUMail - two windows (I have the folder browser open),
In normal use of GNUMail I found that I needed 5 windows open to do what I leave mutt sitting in the background for...
GWorkspace - one window,
Not a clue what that's for.
Firefox Community Edition - two windows
OK - that's fairly usual.
GNUstep apps have a tendency to open lots of windows when you need to do things, very similar to how GIMP does, I'm not saying it's wrong, just that I found, in my experience, that running a GNUstep desktop led to madness and a cluttered desktop.
