Would not an extendible Desktop environment framework be desirable,
though?
Obviously if anything like this were to be done, it'd be a multi-year
project, and need the co-operation of all major DE projects.

But a standard DE protocol that all environments adhere to would be of
huge benefit IMO,
with all but the most implementation-specific bits split out into
common, shared, cross-environment libraries
