GNOME bad
Plasma good
XFCE better
I couldn't get used to plasma. I dunno why. I really like the gnome style applications window over a start menu.
I'm a plasma user and I would also prefer a fullscreen start menu. Ideally a fullscreen krunner with all its amazing bells and whistles.
We each have to make the compromise that suits us best. I doubt most people think one desktop or another is perfect.
You can change out the Windows-style start menu on Plasma for the "Application Launcher" button which will be a fullscreen app launcher like in GNOME. Or are you wanting something different?
