New GUI conception - Githubissues

Just one thing for now:
I am not talking about this or that extra feature to add to a gui, but a new 
conception of a gui for a truly chess fan, a GUi that becomes the global gui of 
the PC of the user. 
Imagine the office of Mr Botvinik as it probably was. He was a man with several 
interests of course, sou you could see in his study tables full with books and 
several things like that, butt I can suppose that the central feature was a 
table board with the pieces deployed in a position that perhaps he was playing 
or studying.
Then imagine now a program that makes of the first screen of your computer 
something like that, a room where in the center there is a table board, etc and 
around it, in visual metaphors, the rest of the programs you use and that 
actually appears, in the conventional screen, as icons. 
In this global metaphor your word processor appears perhaps as an old type 
machine in that corner, the browser is that telescope aiming the windows, your 
documents are inside that drawer, etc. 
Then if you choose to activate the chess programs, you push the table board in 
the center of the room, etc.
But the program itself is also different. It does not only comes alive when you 
push the button, so to say; it is alive on its own all he time. It is always 
operating even if in a low level consumption  of processor power. So when you 
are writing in your WP, maybe a dialog pops out and invites you to a fast and 
relaxing game. Or it has been examining your last game against it, discovered 
your flaws and offer you a set of exercises to remedy your weakness.

and so on...
Now you have a glimpse of my idea, severely amputated here.
If you are still interested, we can add something more.
