Why,I did not choose Unity? I am a developer too. Desktop software design principle (Maybe you know) , for end users, they hope every software has similar appearance, .aka. UX..... Similar menu layout,keyshortcuts,status bar,notification area.....especially,settings panel.
Why not improve GNOME if you think it sucks? (OK..,why not improve Unity if I think it sucks...because I won't waste time on it,I think Unity have no significant for end users.They want bug fixes and new useful features & softwares adding eagerly , not another desktop env.) BTW:You can image, while user works,he open a new window,...desktop disappears. In spare time ,I want to develop some useful tiny programs which *other platform provided but ubuntu lack of*.(Wine? never be a solution.You must know it.Forget Wine.Develop your own linux desktop software.) But when I see Unity,I am confused. Did I need test my program on Unity? These desktop env have different API &UX. Programs can't do a good seamless integration with desktop env(also file managers such as Nautilus . Konqueror). Hn...Ha... Why not GNOME X.X? Great Unification.
