Feature requests not marked as "Closed" are still open. There's no
guarantee of course that all feature requests will be implemented
immediately, and given the many priorities for features they're already
publicly committed to it's understandable that other new features may
remain in queue longer than we might prefer.
That said, since that request was originally submitted the business
landscape has changed, and today Apple is the only company pursuing a
bifurcated OS strategy while Windows, Ubuntu, and others are pursuing a
unified strategy across all device types (and given that there are
effectively few differences in use cases between a tablet with a docking
keyboard and a slender laptop with a detachable touch screen, I feel
it's reasonable to expect Apple will announce a unified OS strategy
within another couple years at the outside).
So if you want to add your business use case to the comments there that
may help raise awareness for the request, though please keep in mind
that they also have requests from others in our community so there's no
guarantee they'll stop work on other requested features to jump on this one:
