Expos\u00e9 has certain limitations (e.g. it can&#8217;t tile tabbed windows; note the behavior with Safari or Firefox), and Apple is only going to do a limited amount to make Spaces work with Carbon-based apps.  Hopefully things will improve as Photoshop migrates to Cocoa.<\/li>\n<p>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Allow Save and Open windows to have independent histories.&#8221;\n<ul>\n<li>Good suggestion.  In the meantime, if you&#8217;re on OS X and aren&#8217;t using <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stclairsoft.com\/DefaultFolderX\/index.html\">Default Folder<\/a>, I think you&#8217;re kind of insane.  Hitting Opt-up\/down arrows to move among recently used folders is second nature to me, to the point that I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s not on every Mac.  As for Windows, I know I&#8217;ve used similar utilities in the past, but I don&#8217;t know any names offhand.  (Suggestions welcome.)<\/li>\n<p>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Should be able to set up a grid of guides based off of pre-entered values so you don&#8217;t have to drag out 100 of them by hand.&#8221;\n<ul>\n<li>Check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.adobe.com\/jnack\/2009\/02\/gridmaker_panel.html\">GridMaker panel<\/a>.  Maybe this is the sort of thing we should include in the box (polished up, naturally).  The advantage of shipping some features as scripts\/Flash panels is that others can modify\/extend them as needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Thanks for all the excellent feedback.
