...Now, I haven't used Linux regularly in a long time, so I may be misunderstanding, but unless "multi-window mode" means something very different than what it sounds like, it seems ludicrously arrogant to be declaring it a "relic of the past". Do you think every application should use no more than a single window, and fit its content inside that? Rather than being able to have a window for the main content, a tool palette, an information window, etc? Just because that's the only kind of application you can imagine wanting to use or make doesn't mean that should be the only thing allowed.
