right, so instead of having a Desktop folder, we should have a Desktop folder full of standardized shit and people should use that. forget the idea that people don't care about folder structures and are trying to get *different* specific tasks with *similar* internal structures done. (i leave it as an exercise to the reader to understand why a single hierarchy on disk thus fails) forget the idea that files and folders can not be mapped to the user's POV in a single hierarchy. forget the idea that not all things ARE files but should be equal to them. forget the idea that files and icons are not the point of a primary interface at all but an ancillary concept to support the primary concept of working on projects, tasks and with other people. "commitment to a usable plasma" indeed. -- Aaron J. Seigo humru othro a kohnu se GPG Fingerprint: 8B8B 2209 0C6F 7C47 B1EA EE75 D6B7 2EB1 A7F1 DB43 KDE core developer sponsored by Qt Software
