This thread started w/ remarks about a Dedo/Igor review. He is 
frequently unhappy w/ what he finds when he wants to tweak some UI to 
his liking and doesn't like how the tweaking goes.

I'm more interested in how that dev decided to set up 'his' distro.

There are many different angles a distro dev may choose to approach a 
'purpose' for his or their project, which may be a MUCH different 
purpose than just how the default appearance is setup, but somewhere 
along the way, he/they have to 'decide' on what the initial appearance 
is going to be.

Since I'm not generally an appearance tweaker, my views of some 
alternative ways of the desktop appearing comes from the 'hopping' if 
you would call it that.
