There's one more thing with today's desktop environments.
I'm working mostly with files. The workflow is to make file in one
program, process in another, correct in third one, manage files in
Konqueror, use files in one more program, batch- process in terminal,
etc. In Trinity the most frequently used tasks can be configured to
toolbar buttons or some actions (e.g. click-to-rename which is
unfortunately not consistent in different views like in MSWin).
KDE4 or Gnome 3 or many other desktops are focused on working not with
files, but with programs. This is a small change in ergonomy, but has
significant consequences. Most customization does not exist in this
model and most tasks are executed in single program, so changing active
programs (famous Alt-tab) occurs rarely. It is good if someone uses
only web browser and mail client, but fails when files are processed.
With every new version of operating systems and tablet computing
gaining popularity, this model slowly goes back to single-tasking model.
It looks similar to these web browsers which dropped
favourites/bookmarks for 3x3 dial scrren to bind users to few
commercial internet content providers (saying "website" for these sites
is not much appropriate today).
