"decidedly unglamourous desktop"

It works. It doesn't get in the way.

Many years ago, Linus talked about the "hard candy shell" around the 
kernel, the fact that a system call today, yesterday, tomorrow, were 
all the same. The insides change constantly, but the interface is 
consistent.

That's what TDE is for me. A consistent interface. My 20 year old mbox 
email files work exactly the same way they did when I first created 
them.

Now I don't _have_ to use mbox files, but if I do they work. They 
remain consistent. And that consistency (with of course the 
occasional slips) is the value of TDE to me. Kmail, Konqueror, kgpg, 
Klipper, Konsole, TDE wallet. I use them every day, and they just 
work.

Thank you.
