I agree with this, but I would suggest to take it a little further:
personally, I make heavy use of multiple desktops to organize my
varied activities.  I would find it very useful, if I could have
multiple "Desktop"s as well :-)  Each one with the shortcuts
appropriate to the current activity right there where it does me the
most good and does not get lost in the fray of irrelevant stuff.

Cheers,
