At work I run with 16 windows under fvwm.
Here at home, running KDE with 8 desktop windows.

Currently I have 32 custom desktop shortcuts spread around the edges
because it is nothing for me to have 2 to 4 apps in running in any of
the 8 desktop windows I happen to be in at the time.
In your suggestion, I would constantly be window shading/minimizing
apps to get to applets.

8, While you're writting in a text-editor(applet), the data saved
automatically; user wouldn't asked to save it with a filename,

Not in my world. Every once in awhile I have to scrap the work, and
start over.

9, Just drag and drop to arrange/organize your document and applet on
desktop by pile and stack;

Excuse me, but pile and stack just become the menu I already have in the
Task bar.
