Agree 100%. Lack of industry standards was the problem for Desktop Linux 20 years ago, and still is today. Come to think of it, the biggest alternatives like GIMP and Libre Office (Star Office) were already present in the 90s.

Plug for gnumeric, which was better than libreoffice/openofice/staroffice calc in the 90s and still is today. ssconvert is a nice thing too.
