Or that you're trying to use a tool not aimed at the desktop end user.
 Of course I don't know what would have happend if you had clicked on
that deb on the ubuntu desktop. When you're using a beta third-party
program, its at your own risk. Last time I was on the ubuntu desktop
and clicked on an official deb, everything just magically worked.

I bet I could find/make a package which would cause DnD to fail too.

You have to comapre the same things, if you want me to let you get
away with a smug Apple is so cool rant. (Not that Apple isn't cool,
and doesn't generally have a better interface)
