"Too fast" - I take it as a compliment. ;)

Suppose you saw "won't fix" on the ubuntu-docs bug task for xenial. In
this case I think we should distinguish between the actual fix in u-c-c
and the applicable docs page.

Considering that the control in question is useless in 16.04, it's
desirable that the change is SRU:ed, no doubt, and I'm ready to vote for
an UI freeze exception any time.

My "won't fix" applies to the 16.04 docs only. SRU:ing a desktop guide
change is quite a big thing, due to the way the ubuntu-docs package
interacts with translations and the language packs. The "Software" ->
"Ubuntu Software" change is currently being processed:

That change will be completed only after the translators have verified
the updated language packs:

IMNSHO this u-c-c change is not important enough to justify the work
involved with SRU:ing the desktop guide. Let's SRU the actual change,
while living with the resulting discrepancy in 16.04 between the GUI and
the docs.
