Idea:
- Make the login stuff (from GDM/KDM to the Desktop) all in fullscreen and show the desktop when everything is loaded. might be better user expereice and that way the KDE and Gnome login stuff can finally be equal.

This is why I hate programs like Firefox and Thunderbird
that come their own custom package system.

No matter how cool Firefox plugins are, if all programs
did such things, Linux systems would become as maintainable
and robust as Windows.

We could kill off Firefox's plugin system and package
useful plugins as RPMs instead.  Not to say anything
about the custom localization system.

Maybe this is material for a different flame, but who
likes Firefox's and Thunderbird's own implementations
of keyring, with different passwords and interfaces?
And what about the custom filetype associations?
