I use Gnome & Enlightenment and I'm wondering why Gnome doesn't
recognize the virtual desktops; ie: if you have several Gnome terms on
separate v. desktops and then you save the session, the next time you
logged in, the terminals will be piled up on the first desktop. Is this
a bug, or it just means that Gone and E don't work very well? (if you
have no virtual desktop, then there'll be no problem.)

BTW, have you ever drag your mouse past a screen border and see the
window server scrolls the desktop pointed by the mouse? (of course,
assuming that you have set up the virtual desktop wider than one). I
think this is neat. Have you ever drag a window (or terminal) past a
screen border and see the window server scrolls the desktop and put the
window in the newly pointed desktop...? I think this is very neat.
That's why I like E.

I think it would be nice if what Gnome does doesn't overlap with what E
(or other window servers) does. A simple example: Gnome has a feature
for setting the screen background, E has too. Gnome has a concept of
session, E has (something like it) too. Problem is, the features don't
always work together, and the duplications make the use of X is not
quite user-friendly (ie: slightly confusing). I believe if the
developers are willing to talk to each other and deciding the features
that are under their controls and that are not, would be great.
