I don't see any particular structural accidents waiting to happen,
above and beyond the norm in Unix. (OTOH, I don't spend a lot of time
studying Desktop Environments. Someone else might do a better job
at spotting, e.g., software structures likely to lull unwary desktop
users into carrying out dangerous actions.)
