	I think that lightweight code certainly has its place, but I suspect  
most users would prefer larger, more "bloated" apps that have the  
kinds of features a unified desktop environment provides (common  
dialogs, drag and drop, shared configuration, etc., etc.).

	Nevertheless, it'd be nice if perhaps it could all be done in a way  
that made it less of a hassle to install new software.
