What do you mean by incompatible with other apps?
Can you not launch gnome/kde applications from enlightenment? Can you not run EFL apps when running gnome or KDE?
The issue isn't the apps, but the launcher menus and such; the things that FDO are trying to standardise...
The point is that while vendors can ship for both KDE and GNOME without serious effort, they have to go to an extra length to support E -- if E supported the .desktop files, then it could add itself to the "supported desktop environments" list of lots of apps; I doubt that all the package maintainers who ship .desktop files will be willing to add .eapps to satisfy a small minority of the users.
Personally I'd rather be able to use my existing launch menu heirarchy than have to manually create my own menus for E, with not a great deal of benefit (that I can see, anyway - does the E menu do anything that FDO's .desktop files don't?)
