I think the federated approach has its long-term overarching pluses but they require day-to-day minuses that are off-putting.

@zep I forget, have you said anything about supporting a 9:16 portrait display mode for Picotron? I imagine it'd probably be something you pass on the command line.

Not sure if you'd want the OS to run 9:16 but it'd be nice.

My brain hurts. I'm going to bed. :P
