[net.works] Windows, ...

I agree, of course popping up many windows is a particular style of
window interface.  I object to the style partially because it seems so
prevalent.

Drawing on the wide experience of the readership, I ask: are there any
types of window interfaces which make particularly efficient use of
screen space, or use representations with levels of detail
intermediate between window and icon?  Small windows are a
possibility, but not very efficient at reduced size.
