Ok. I'll add this.
In my case I never run Desktop but sometimes quit GWorkspace and am annoyed at having to manually kill Inspector as well (and can't kill Operation without 'ps' and 'kill' since I disable its icon in Windowmaker to avoid clutter). My machine is resource limited so I don't want to just leave these things running willy-nilly.
