Is _this_ lack of feedback that you "positively love"? Well, at least _I_ do. I have one (and only one) Firefox _window_ open, with a lot of tabs - and it is _always_ on desktop 3. That way I don't have to "hunt" for the most recent firefox window, because I always know where it is. This is a setting _I_ have chosen, and that _I_ feel make _me_ the most productive, as all links opened from other applications are truly opened in the background, and does not interfere with what I am currently reading. And I can easily switch to desktop 3 whenever I am ready to read the pages I opened. (Usually, when I click on a link in I.E. Evolutions, I want to finish reading the mail I was currently reading before jumping to the webpage that was referenced - maybe I even want to read a few more emails in the same thread. So opening a new browser window on top of the Evolution window (I will not engage in the debate about opening new windows behind the current app here) would be quite disturbing for _me_. This woks for _me_ as I say, you might feel different about it, but it is only an example showing that the behaviour is "right" for some people - like myself. Rgds.
