Agreed. In fact, back at MIT, this was required reading in 6.033, one of the required classes for CS. We spent 1-2 weeks discussing it and its issues at great length. One of my favorite courses by far.
In fact, that whole course was brilliant. It was almost like a seminar where we read a ton of seminal CS papers (X Windows was one of my other favorites) and discussed them / studied them. Really one of my most memorable courses.
