Would you use a temporary work surface over your main desk setup?

I’m affiliated with a small team exploring an early standing desk concept. Not selling anything here — no link, no signup. Just trying to sanity-check whether this solves a real desk setup problem.

My desk is usually set up for computer work: desk mat, keyboard, mouse, laptop, and other daily stuff. But when I need a clean surface for paperwork, sketching, devices, or a temporary task, I usually have to clear everything first.

The idea is a sit-stand desk paired with a larger rolling utility cart / dock. The top panel of the cart can be lifted off and placed over the main desk area as a raised second work surface. When you’re done, you lift it off and put it back on top of the cart.

The point is to get a clean temporary work surface without moving your keyboard, mouse, laptop, or normal desk setup.

Would this be useful, or would you just clear the desk and move on?
