Re: spatial stuff detail

[Arik Devens <arik danieltiger com>]

The feature I most wish GNOME supported from RoX is the idea of an 
application as a directory. Mac OS X does this too, and it makes WAY 
more sense then the way most of Linux currently works from a new user 
perspective.

Installing new programs is one of the least new-user-friendly aspects 
of Linux right now, and application-as-directory packing would make 
this problem disappear.
