thanks @retsaw
memory saving might be negligent.. but IMHO it will surely reduce the amount of clicks & hence save a bit time.. no bouncing back to desktop... just the apps... active/inactive..

I'm not sure you even know how to use Maemo 5. No, sorry, scratch that. I'm not sure you're even using Maemo 5.
What is all this clicking and bouncing around you're doing? (That was rhetorical; please don't answer)
Dude, you never have to go to the desktop if you don't want to.
And dude, we never go to the app manager because we know what we're doing.
But dude, do the right thing and learn how to customize and optimize your primary desktop. [hint: NO "running" widgets]
May the force be with you.

maybe i have made this post too early i should have posted it in 2014 when mobile devices might be crossing 2gb mark of ram ... and by that time you will realize that N900 has just 256mb...
i don't know about you but i will still be having My N900 by then... just like My years old 7710...
may be you are not understanding what i am trying to say... let me explain this way
people like N9
now imagine N9 has lost its Swipe control
and their is a menu button placed on the upper left corner of it to navigate to all three views
so people will still like N9 but not in the same way..

That of course means that you'll always have to leave one app opened, but frankly I can't remember when I closed the terminal the last time.
I could rather spare the apps menu than the multitasking screen because everything I need is on my three desktops and for some things I don't need an icon at all because I start them from the terminal anyway (e.g. mc, vim).
I have no idea how much RAM it will save to completely eliminate the desktop, but I wouldn't estimate it to be more than a few kB. I think you can gain more free RAM by choosing a solid-colour background image.
