I think the clear difference between existing desk share systems is that coworking puts community first: its more than just people co-existing in shared work space. While the co-habitation is nice, what's really amazing is the vibe, the energy, and the magic of exactly what you said, a bunch of smart, interesting creative people working around each other. Cool things are BOUND to happen in a setting like that.
