	Is that anything like the Active Applications menu or the Apple Menu?

.... a "recently opened documents"

	I have that too -- and a "recently run applications" folder and a 
"recently accessed servers" folder.

.... toolbars with common file management comands,

	I don't need toolbars when I can get the commands from pull-down

	What the Mac has had for several years.

.... titlebars in folder windows with info. about the selected file,

	I've already got something like that -- "View by Name, etc."

>more configureable trashcan/recycle bin, more drag-and-drop, etc.
