The biggest potential change to desktop GUI since Windows, or an overworked
physics farce that will never see broad use? Either way, the ability to
pile, scatter, bump, ruffle, nudge, toss, lasso, fold, crumple, and shelve
icons as if they were physical objects, makes my head spin - in a good
direction.

Here's a demo (the 7 min version is worthwhile!!):
