I'm just going to go ahead and say it would be awesome if we could enable this ( http://betalabs.nokia.com/betas/view...-photo-browser ) for the desktops

i'd rather like it to limit it to 3 screens that wrap around, instead of adding more
Regarding extending to more screens, I believe qgil said the desktop would be open source, so it could presumably be extended by the community. There are probably other limits you would need to tweak, such as the total number of widgets allowed on the desktops.

I was under the impression that the 4 desktops wrap around so you can keep scrolling sideways forever.

Would it be possible to be able to tag one of them as your primary, and have some sort of hardware button shortcut to get back? Or, to fix it so that doesnt endlessly loop, making it like the iphones desktop setup?

Why have a primary desktop ?
Instead its better to be able to recall the desktop with a keyboard shortcut - say Fn+Ctrl+1 for desktop 1 and so on ...
But seriously with 4 desktops, it isnt that difficult to scroll anyways (in case the key shortcut is missing feature for now).

Having more is also a performance issue. Anyways, as most people here say, even 4 is plenty. The more you have, the longer it will get to to get to any desktop (because it's 1d navigation), and the more you need to remember.
But yes, there is a setting for 1-4.

True, but we should be able to have more than 4 if WE want them, not what someone deems we need. What is it on the iPhone, you can have like 11-12?

Great feature though since this allows comfortable full screen usage.
