I've been running Fedora and Debian Linux since 2005 and I really only remember perhaps trying out Enlightenment. Gnome 2 Being my Favourite. And KDE being my second favourite. ROX sounds interesting to me too. I do most of my work in Krusader file manager and open all files from there. I seldom use the "File Open" menu in an Application. So, I may try out ROX. Check out the rest on their site link below...

10 amazing Linux desktop environments you've probably never seen
By Bryan Lunduke , May 15, 2013
Enlightenment
Enlightenment is probably the most highly used Desktop Environment in this collection – it's been around quite a long time (it is actually older than GNOME) and is incredibly mature. The current version (E17) is fast – even running quite well on low-end hardware – and is truly gorgeous. Everything about Enlightenment will be instantly recognizable to users of modern computers, except it feels like it was created by some sort of ultra-classy alien race from a star system far, far away.
ROX
ROX is...weird, but wonderful. It brings together the “everything is a file” style of traditional UNIX systems with some concepts from RISC OS. Most current computers try to hide the guts of your file system from you and provide you with a series of launchers (docks, “start buttons”, etc.) and shortcut tools. ROX takes the opposite approach, opting instead to make the file system itself as usable as possible so you can work with your system efficiently directly from the file manager. To this end, ROX uses the “Applications are directories” approach, filing applications (and support files) in a single directory that is then treated as the app itself.
