I m KDE user since version 2,and i experienced how much feature rich KDE is than other desktop managers.Only thing I and most of the KDE users i talked with is Window decorations set.KDE have very poor set of window decoration set,in comparison with gnome or MS or MAC OS X.(E.g.Openlook,Kstep,web,BII,kde1,kde2,system++ etc.)These window decorations may sound good for some group of peoples but for others they are poor,sluggish designs.
I can understand KDE is revamping itself with new desktop project Plasma.Currently many developers are working on it, i think such great project must have priority for the window decoration area.As KDE is open source project to improve itself over other dekstop managers,needs to think on small aspects like this one.This applies to gnome or any other open source window manager also.

Intention of my post is besides bugs or usability problem What you see in KDE?What features you want to see in it?etc.
We can't be positive with ourselves all the time."Because finding faults in ourselves will allow us to improve and with improvement we can reach stars and without it we can't."So for the improvement of the window manager community we have to rate it.
Sometimes i think our developer friends at K/ubuntu can create their own set of window decorations.As most of the operating system have thier standard window decorations set then why not K/ubuntu ?
If you have more ideas or errors to point,Bring them on.
Let's see what all of you think about it.
