it looks pretty good already. the two open questions here for me are: * is an "arrange in a grid" feature more or less useful than making it easy to "snap" widgets during resize and move to the edges of other widgets? arranging widgets in a grid for the user will lead to interesting and possibly intractible challenges like "how wide/tall should the colums/rows be?" * right now each containment implements its own layout strategy and that's actually quite useful (c.f. newspaper vs panel vs desktop). however, in some cases (desktop and folderview) it would be nice to share layout strategies. this might be a nice addition. -- Aaron J.
