Re: [Ayatana] A realistic vision of the next iteration of Unity

Great post! Thank you for the nice mockups too!

Absolutely no idea if this is considered "realistic" but lets hope so.
I really have no critical feedback (so far) just a few amendments:

Compiz should get some love
see "Remember window positions"
https://lists.launchpad.net/ayatana/msg05613.html
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/124315

minimize/close/windows titles for the spread view:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/783498

and finally, less important: Unity should be completely theme-able,
including panel, launcher and dash. I can't help it but I don't like
Ambiance and anything else looks out of place (if it doesn't outright
break something, just an example:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/776697)

All of this is already in LP so how do we proceed with the stuff that
isn't? For this reason your last point ("A unified Ubuntu design and
development platform") should actually be the first ;)
