 It works both ways. If designers understood the shit developers have to go through when they send them >1GB PSDs with badly named layers and multiplies everywhere and if developers understood why designers want that button moved by 3px we'd live in a better world.

 A designer doesn't need to know how to code as such but understand how the development process works (if they can good well, that's always a bonus) and a developer needs to understand the design process too (if they can use photoshop and edit the PSDs then we're going well).

 The fact of the matter is that in this day and age it's less about being a master of one trade or a jack of all, but having a good understanding how different factors from design, development and even sysadmin, come together to make a digital "product". It's that key understanding that means that the players in the different verticals will respect each others comments and decisions.
