Hmm. I think almost always a good thing - keeps dialogs with parents,
doesn't block other app windows etc. However they can be abused, I
guess. I certainly wouldn't use them for image manipulation, for
example.

You didn't mention NSToolbar. I find it slightly clunky (as a
programmer) but undoubtedly a useful UI element. Together with drawers
even dodgy apps like mine look polished and easy to use - with little
effort on my side :-)
