My favorite aspect of my current desktop is the ominous looking fellow floating my favorite shortcuts and files between his hands. My vision of a perfect GUI now includes something like this holding things you plan accessing often. Alternatively you could switch it out with something else holding your programs, like that gargoyle from Diablo 2. I don't know anything about GUIs, but ever since I watched the video I can't use my computer without my eyes twitching a bit, and I hope this helps the effort in some way.
