I found the section in the code (it seems very simple, in fact) which 
interfaces with cdrecord, just didn't have the time to test it. To make multi 
session default I think would be enough to change the mode to TAO and add the 
extra parameter that asks for multisession.

I agree. This is the exact reason I think multisession should be choosen over 
single sessions. It is the catchall situations option, therefore easier for 
newbies.

I found they used cdrecord's default, which seems to be TAO. The choice for 
DAO as to close a bug (#315068) and the rationale is that they asume it will 
only use  ISO and CUE files anyway. Maybe it's a design thing, but I don't 
really get it.

I am testing the hipothesis that gnome is lighter. Maybe KDE4 will be much 
better than KDE3. Part of what I read that will like very much is that they 
will discard the excessive ammount of programs (for instance, instead of 
kate, krite, kedit ..., select one and kick the rest).

I also think Ubuntu is better tailored than Kubuntu. Maybe it's not really an 
issue of Gnome x KDE, but the ammount of people working on each. It often 
seems to me that too few canonical people work in the Kubuntu project. Mostly 
I see only Ridell's packages. It must be really a lot to take care of.

I am now using everything gnome offers, except for PIM. It will be too much of 
hassle to convert, if I may still go back.
