Where is the point to write kde or next-gnome xy when you only are allowed to make the same gui again with other toolkits?
They don't use the same gui, but follow similar basic patterns, so you don't need to learn the basic things again and again...
The same applies to desktop environments... It's not necessary (nor good) to have equal desktops, but it's ok to have basic design rules.
There isn't any need to combine toolkits... But there is a need to provide the same simplicty and usability from them (they can coexist)...
The biggest problem for Linux is the userbase. Most of linux users are geeks and developers that no have a clue about simplicty and usability
