I'm starting to get disillusioned with GNOME--both the applications offering
and the programming interface--so I secretly wish they had not done this
and encouraged the GNOME developers to do even more of the same. On the other 
hand, GNOME probably *is* a massive improvement over CDE or OpenWindows, and
erstwhile CDE users may not even notice how bloated GNOME is....
