...to cope with the fuzziness of *analog* reality.
One other thing i just realized is that much of this stuff would be so much
easier, if we could drag a tab with its favicon to the panel, desktop or a
folder..
At the moment, Firefox opens the tab in a new window, when i drag it to
empty desktop space.
Dragging to the desktop should also not be a priority, especially because we
want windowed applications to obscure the desktop completley in order to use
all available screen real estate efficiently.
