Much buggier too.  And it lacks full screen mode.

I've dropped back to just using ctwm and XDarwin.  Aqua is all the
eye-candy one man can stand, kde on top is just overkill.

FWIW, the only config I've found which allows cut and paste between X
and Aqua is XDarwin+{C}TWM, or Apple's X11 which uses their hideous
Aqua-like WM...  Half the reason I use X rather than a bunch of
terminals is to *avoid* the clunky, non-custamizable UI that the Aqua
interface gives you..
