Yes, it seems both Gnome and KDE want to become eye-candy, touchscreen shells 
to launch "apps" instead of a fully functional desktop for a graphical 
workstation. I lost faith in gnome when they rolled out gdm3. They removed a 
shit-ton of nice features and customizability to make a dumbed-down, 
microsoft-esque blandness for what seems to me no good reason.
