Timer slack for slacker developers

I'd describe that as "I want a Unix workstation and not *just* a pretty desktop". The pretty is all right, but only if it doesn't break other stuff on its way. "Pretty" is less important than "works".

(But I know we are weird this way. Emacs versus vi is one thing, but most people would look at both of those and run screaming back to their pretty Eclipse. Actually, no, most people would run screaming back to Word, which is neither pretty nor functional...)
