Well for me its the only desktop that does workspaces / virtual desktops properly with multiple screens out of the box, I can have screen 1 on workspace 4 and screen to on workspace 2 then change screen 1 to workspace 3 then sometime later change screen 2 to workspace 2, this is great for having certain apps on one screen and flicking between multiple on the other. That is pretty much the way I worked with KDE and have this pact decade. Back in my Mandrive days (yes, before Mageia) I worked that way with Gnome, but I found Gnome increasingly ... something I didn't like working with.
I look at Enlightenment and its architecture and I think "That's the right way to do things", but somehow whenever I load it and try to use it seem to suffer a heartbreak full of frustration trying to set it up, get it to do what you describe. There just doesn't seem to be the How-To that there is for KDE and, *sigh* Gnome. What there is seems to be written, well I can't say "in a different language", since it is English, yes, but it seems to have, and lets face it so does Linux compared to Windows, different cultural assumptions
KDE does have a heavy footprint. I gather Enlightenment's is much smaller.
Perhaps I need some better 'hand holding' than the current docco gives for beginners with Enlightenment. But it's had to pin down and describe what I think is lacking.
+1 I used Enlightenment a few years ago and loved it but my last try just ended after an hour where I didn't find how to set up simple things. Didn't get through.
