how do you define Unix-like in 2011?
Not Ayatana or Gnome Shell in any way - I am not crazy - in both of
them Usability is a joke. Usability is the most honted and killed

2 new prisons for Linux users - they have no options to turn back -
but the Unix / Linux

i think human computer interaction has some basic rules which apply to all
input devices that are pointer based.

i think
look at Unix interfaces from the past they have been not pretty but
functional back in the good old days we had XWM and applications written
different toolkits but they did not get in the users way and did not bog
the system.
When given the idea of 'small is beautiful' - I'd also say small

Those are all great, but how do they relate to touch interfaces? Are
touch interfaces inherently invalid in the eyes of the UNIX
philosophy? This is ironic, since I believe well over 90% of
touch-based OSs in use

It is possible to close all windows in an Application from the launcher
(Right click Quit). That said, the ability to close a window from
spread would be minimally intrusive, and would speed up the process of
closing only one window (i.e. a file manager) without having to focus
it or close
