Just reading through the contributions to that, one thing jumped out at
me as a long term issue I'd suffered from:  If, at some time, while
dragging an icon across the screen to drop it somewhere you had a tiny
fumble (lost pressure on the mouse button at an inopportune moment, or
hit some random part of the GUI), you'd lock-out any access to the
desktop.  You could move the mouse around, but nothing would respond to
it.  If you had at terminal open, you *may* be able to alt-tab to it
and type in some commands, but you could never regain control.  You had
to reboot or hard reset the PC.

I could never duplicate the fault on purpose, to make any error report
about it, and wouldn't know how to gain useful info for such a hard
break down.  I'd say I've encountered this, from time to time, for over
a decade.
