I don't need them; but I would like them; I would prefer each desktop to
represent a "context". A context tends to be focused on a single directory and
its sub-subdirectories. It usually entails a shell window and maybe 3 to 5
editor windows. I don't usually visit every context every day but I probably
visit every context almost every week.
