I think I already asked this in another email (I'm jetlagged so my brain is acting weird XD) but, why is this specific?

It doesn't, it only applies to the shell (plasma-workspae + kwin), which I did in purpose because I'm not sure of what a "desktop | workspace" contain. If we include bluedevil, randr etc into the workspace then the vision should be extended. > > For the users that need it, > > which people need it? which don't? why? You only need to organize things when you have things to organize. A user that only wants to watch lolcats on youtube and talk to friends via facebook doesn't. A user that use the computer for multiple things or in multiple areas (work, home) may want to. > > > There is another part of my vision focused on developers, I don't think it > > is relevant here. > > be daring and share it anyways ;) The workspace should be extensible by third party developers and thus should be able to integrate their applications with it not mattering on which technology the application is written. Nothing that current plasma can't do. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
