Whilst that is basically my setup, it is definitely not an intuitive one to use. For power users, it likely is better than GNOME, KDE, etc. but it's only power users that would take the time to get acquainted with it. If someone wanted to put together a meta-package and some scripts for tighter integration however, I would be very happy to test it, and wouldn't mind seeing an installer that uses it as default, but it shouldn't be *the* default.
