Luxury! When I was a developer back in the day I wrote a WIMP interface on't BBC Micro in less than 32K.

Seriously though, I would utterly detest overlapping windows in the multitasking view. Jolla could do some kind of masonry grid of blocks which is a well used design pattern on the web though. It might look a tad too familiar to Windows.
