Dear Mark, I see your point, but we all know from years of experience that pop-ups and pop-unders are only considered an annoyance by users, and that they don't fit for the purpose. That's why most of us were proud of the gnome way: to avoid as many pop-ups as possible. This gave ubuntu a "rock solid, unannoying" feeling that made it extremely competitive on usability over windows. We all are complaining because we feel that pop-under or whaterer are just wrong, and we want ubuntu to be perfect :) In any case I appreciate a lot the work of canonical: to summarize, "jaunty is lovely".
