I don't like them currently. I turn them off and turn on the mainbar. I find they tend to clutter the real estate and don't really offer me any additional functions that I can't get through the menu or a workspace.
Am I missing something?
Not really. Just a matter of preference.
I tend to turn off flaps that come with Squeak, but I've made my own. You can put anything in the flap (arbitrary objects or windows that you've set up just so).
Flaps can hold any object and a flap can be easier to get to than the desktop.
You certainly could write code to repeat the customization (and that's probably a more scalable approach), but flaps can be handy.

Hello Ryan,
RZ> Am I missing something? the left Flap can be used to move (copy) Morphs between Projects and I don't know another way to do this. Which doesn't mean it's impossible.
Hello,
You can export an object as morph, isn't it? ("export..." option by menu) Of course you will have problems if this morph has scripts calling to another objects...

Export and import to move between projects? I can understand doing that to move between images, but you can have multiple projects per image. (World menu, new, morphic project).

Sorry, I notice now I was speaking about another image version, anyway you can do it, the method is saveonFile (inside Morph class, of course)

Hi Herbert,
Interesting - when a morph is placed in a flap, the left (Squeak) flap does move, the other flaps do copy.
Via the menu route: right click over object > copy to paste buffer switch project left click world > new morph > from paste buffer or right click world > project > object from paste buffer
