One of the big things I have to do for customers is to turn off the spatial perspective in nautilus. People hate having to close 15 windows as they went searching for something in their directory tree structure.. but every time I and others mention it.. its that we arent understanding what we should do.. Here is a sample of what multiple customers have complained about:

Well I am just wanting to open up a document that I filed away in the way that I wanted, but I when I have finished opening up
Desktop
Work Documents
Project XYZ
2005
Work Orders

I now have 4 windows I dont want to stay open and 2 that I do.. so I end up spending a lot of time closing stuff.

[And switching to 'classic' mode makes everything look like it is GNOME-0.8 and not as featured as the KDE desktop.]

I currently use GNOME, but I am coming this close to switching over to KDE even if it means being a third class citizen on Fedora.
