Some feedback on those shots:

IMHO "Copy CD" and "CD Image" don't belong here. Copy CD would be better
of in a "Tools" menu in the main program window. Also CD Session should
be exportable as an iso, and Burning isos should also be in a "Tools"
menu so "CD Image" is unnecesary.

1. Options should be in the burn dialog IMHO because they should be 
the same for all cd types and only need to be set once per cd being
created so don't need to be taking up space in the main UI.

2. I'd much prefer to see the file browser sepporated from the 
notebook like in k3b ( http://xsu.sourceforge.net/Screenshot-k3b.png ).
This makes it possible to turn it off easily if you just want to
DnD from a file manager. It's also much more consistent and easier to
use this way, and means that you can have a tree pane like in
k3b.

Pitty nautilus's icon and list views aren't embedable..

I could go on, but I'll wait until coaster devel hots up again...
