>> One would think therefore that it would be possible to use traditional applications in the left-hand two-thirds of the screen while running a tablet environment on the right-hand one-third of the screen.

This is actually supported with the Snap functionality where you can have the full desktop on two-thirds of the screen and Metro apps on the left or right. See: http://cdn.nirmaltv.com/images/Windows-8-snap.png

To be fair, it is not that bad. You just have to know what you are buying.
