Re: Luddite OS
I agree with most of your points but not all, particularly f) slab-friendly desktop-hostile.
Please! I have a slabtop (a convertible Tablet PC, actually). It is a pain in the a$$ to use with virtually any desktop environment except (a) GNOME *unfortunately, but I have to compromise* and (b) a heavily hacked, customized Openbox that is still a hack and not even close to daily-driver.
Don't tell me to get a proper laptop, because I LIKE MINE! Hell, in fact, I've been looking all over the world and had to import one from the US (read as:eBay + freight forwarder) to find a tablet that is tablet + repairable + removable battery + 11.6" screen + proper keyboard + Intel Core i5 COMBINED.
TL;DR: Please don't touch the Linux Tablet experience because there are some people (about five) who care about it and are willing to fix a WM themselves to see it working.
