mutanto - if a fully functional "ms style" desktop is what you are lookin for, I don't think that there is one module that will do it for you. Using xLabel/jDesk you can come close, with some tweaks.

Warma/mestdagh - 100% agree with both of you. I run apps max'ed so the desktop space is almost always covered. I too would like to see some discussion on usability and the way people accomplish tasks.
