Squeak as a desktop

Just an interesting observation:
I've just been playing around with the lates 3.2gamma and some of the
goodies that have been released of late...it seems that with a combination
of Zurgle (for looks), Ian's Telnet/Pty emulator and OSProcess, you can
now safely do completely away with any other desktop and work solely
within Squeak (on Linux, at least).
The Telnet/Pty emulator is good enough to run any command-line utilities,
OSProcess provides some really tight OS-level integration and Zurgle...well,
Zurgle just looks fantastic.
Anyone want to write some ICCCM extensions for Squeak so it can become
the worlds most extensible window manager? :)
Great work folks...Squeak just keeps getting better and better!
