This would be great for people that actually work

  Polish and consistency
Several specs under discussion involve improving polish and consistency on the Ubuntu desktop through pervasive and invasive types changes. One good example is a suggestion to to include consistent tab behavior across applications on the Ubuntu desktop.

Firefox, Gaim, GNOME Terminal, and other applications implement tabs with different key-bindings and interaction techniques. The Ubuntu developers are considering making changes to these applications in Edgy to make this behavior more consistent. Similar types of polish aim to improve user experience in other important ways.

This would be great for people that actually work with computers. Three or four different keyboard tab shortcuts is a sign of sloppiness.
