I don't care whether they are separate apps or not, but will there be 
any way for these aux. apps to know they should quit if *neither* 
GWorkspace nor Desktop is running?  In my case I never run Desktop but 
sometimes quit GWorkspace and am annoyed at having to manually kill 
Inspector as well (and can't kill Operation without 'ps' and 'kill' 
since I disable its icon in Windowmaker to avoid clutter).  My machine 
is resource limited so I don't want to just leave these things running 
willy-nilly.
