I always liked the ability to put WIP files right on the desktop. A corner / monitor / virtual desktop for a specific tasks.
I never miss it on a single screen notebook where all the screen-estate is used by the applications anyways, but as soon as 2x 1920x1200 are available, not having icons as WIP and status (mounted devices) FEELS cumbersome.
