Seriously, the notion that it's OK to not care about how defaults affect experienced users is<br>
totally bogus. I run my Kubuntu desktop with very little customization a really dislike the<br>
notion that my preferences don't count because I could turn off some annoying new feature.<br><br>

<br></div>I agree 100%. I try and keep my desktop as close to default
as possible because it makes it so much easier to test bugs. The less
customization I do, the more likely it is that it isn't my fault
somehow. And besides, just because I know how to edit config files
doesn't mean I like doing it.<br>
<br>Although I'd much rather have everything work the way I want it to
out of the box, I realize that sometimes my preferences differ from the
norm. I'm fine with that, but if we're going to do something as
fundamental as a UI reorganization, we have to be absolutely sure that
the majority would benefit from it.<br><font color="#888888">
