Since this thread is about the desktop, don't existing GNOME apps just work under Unity Desktop?


Yes generally all apps designed for any desktop environment just work in others so long as supporting libraries are installed.

A few points of division are pulseaudio and wayland. Pretty much everybody now uses pulse and while most apps will work in wayland I don't know of any that require it yet.
