I'm using it (not in classic mode) whenever I need an X session. (I sometimes
require accessibility-related tools that only run well under GNOME. If it
weren't for that, I'd run a basic window manager instead.)

Mostly, however, I'm still working in Emacs and console sessions. If one can't
see the graphics, there isn't much value in running X, other than for
applications that really need it, such as browsing Web sites that require
JavaScript, the DOM and all those other Web APIs that have proliferated
recently around HTML 5.

In general, I prefer not to work with user interfaces that (1) attempt to hide
what is really going on from the user, thereby introducing a lot of
complexity; and (2) leave the user with limited understanding when something
goes awry, due to all of that abstraction and complexity.
