Summary

The Desktop module is the session-level desktop coordinator. Its service handler is deliberately small: it mediates the Service_Serviced protocol used while the desktop is being assembled, rather than implementing the Wimp itself. It belongs above Wimp, Filer and Pinboard in the boot-time desktop stack.
