Having not followed this thread terribly closely (ok, so I haven't
really followed it at all) I did want to chime in with a comment:
The UI shot you attached looked very cool - and very intuative - just
by inspection I had a fairly solid idea of how objects would behave if
dropped on the Places icons.
I disagree slightly, however, with removing the "Home" navigation
button - it's a pattern that users have been trained to understand
(that's not to say it's a good pattern, just that it's becoming
pervasive). One could argue that you didn't remove it, just move it
to places.
My second comment is that it starts to remind me a bit of NeXT Step
(not a bad thing at all, just an observation).

liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent. Men born to
freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by
evil minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in
insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without
understanding."
