Yea, I've always hated the single window model. Just consider the
photoshop/gimp case. If I have one tall image and one wide image,
I can position those where I can still interact with the rest
of my desktop in one corner of my screen, but in a single screen
GUI model, I pretty much am forced to hide the rest of the desktop
(even without multiple monitors).
