I think also that is a good idea to change the desktop approach.
But I think that it could be heavy of consequences on the Gnome-Shell design
. The conversion of the desktop is a major change for an interface and we
need to decide at the beginning. I understand that we integrate a such
change in several times but we need to decide now. If we add it later, It
will be hard to get a good integration and keep  the consistency of the
design.
