*SIGH* - personally, I have no desktop, but then I run ion3, I don't have floating windows (except gimp, and that lives on a floating workspace, which is only created when I need it). I don't follow why people have become pointy clicky beasts, it's giving less control, and more frustration if anything goes wrong (had to deal with openoffice the other day, that frustrated the hell out of me, gimme LaTeX any day).
Personally I cannot undestand why people cling to keyboard only interfaces. I tried Emacs sveral times but having to remember weird key sequences to do even the simplest of things frustrated the hell out of me. Give me pointy clicky any day.
YMMV
