Wrong. GUI does not equal to Finder. You need to go lower, so as,
for example, those who use PathFinder or RBrowser aren't SOL.
You seem forgetting that Finder is a file manager, not the file
manager.
Actually, Microsoft's system allows for third-party Explorers which
can use their extensions. It's much more flexible than Apple's way,
and it's extensible too. Have you looked into it?
(For example, a coworker of mine has written an entire Explorer
replacement for himself, and extensions like TortoiseSVN can still
work inside it.)
I don't like the built-in Explorer at all, but for customizability,
the Microsoft way is currently unparalleled.
