In their quest to copy Apple, of course this feature is only implemented after it appears in OS X Lion. It's as if the developers lack self-confidence or imagination, or both.

Right, because Apple never borrowed any UI features from anyone else, and came up with everything independently.

The timing is unfortunate, but I doubt they designed and implemented this in a few days.

Lion wasn't the first, and Unity will beat Lion to market, so that's something.
