The Biggest Problem with Gnome and KDE (Score:2)

Isn't that the filemanagers have some way to go, or that silly apps tell me KPACKAGE NEEDS TO BE RUN AS ROOT!
rather than asking me for the password, or that one is more or less favoured by closed source developers, that Ximian installer
force installs all its packages, or that one is more or less free than the other.
Its that they both ignore each other. Half my apps don't work properly. The standardized drag and drop doesn't work across in
any distribution with the latest GNOME and KDE, dragging from Konqueror to the GNOME desktop doesn't work. Neither
does any other cross app drag and drop.
* Drag and drop is broken
* I have 2 sets of mime types
* My KDE panel applets won't launch in the GNOME panel, and vice versa
* When I add an application the the kpanel, it doesn't appear on the foot menu, and vice versa
* KDE and GNOME don't even include apps from each other on their panels
* Childish KDE developers write a GNOME theme importer which calls GNOME `legacy' and childish Eazel developers make
Eazel services showcase any app for any toolkit, as long as it isn't KDE and QT.
* QT and GTK are themed using different engines, with no reason why.
Thisn isn't competition. This is insanity, artifically partitioning all my apps. Neither desktop will win. No OS uses a single
partition.
Imagine a Windows user clicking Start to reveal `MFC applications' `VCL applications' etc. End users don't give a fuck about
toolkits and never have. Why is the KDE team writing KPhotoSuite? Why shouldn't KWord work really well with the GIMP?
Windows uses more than one toolkit. It just does it well. For God's sake, stop partitioning my desktop. Write a combined style
guide for GTK and QT based apps. Make sure both toolkits use the same theming engine, and have a similar range of widgets
aviable.
And for God's sake, stop using your brilliant minds to hurt each other and combine them to actually make Linux a useable
desktop.
I'll have hope the first time a Linux developer actually writes a software installer and doesn't call it `gnorpm'.
