Well, maybe, for some definition of "work". But I'm not sure what your
point is. Please note that I asked for comments on a new page in the

It's worth mentioning, I think, that the desktop guide typically targets
non-technical users. For instance, with a few exceptions it relies on
GUI solutions only.
