Re: Pitch approval -- GNOME 3.28 features

Update to this article plan.

The talking points[1] are a much more concise list and description of
features more suitable for a "What's New" article. I will leave that as
a separate article to be drafted or written by whomever.

The content of *this* article has possibly changed too. My main
motivation for writing a "GNOME 3.28 features" article was to create a
medium to communicate some contentious changes to Nautilus in 3.28.
Upon feedback from some of the folks on the GNOME engagement team, I
have rewritten the section on desktop icons as a much longer piece. I
feel like it might be worthy of an article on its own. My draft is
here[2].

I can either propose it as a standalone article, or include it in a
summary of GNOME 3.28 features. Is this worthy of an article by itself?
