I wouldn't go that far, but only because I don't think the Gnome devs are even
aware of how many people they're antagonizing by their "my way or the highway"
attitude and their utter indifference to what anybody who isn't an active
Gnome dev thinks or wants.
Remember, "Never attribute to malice anything that can adequately be explained
by stupidity." In this case, of course, I'd define stupidity as being a
complete unwillingness to take the needs of their current userbase into account.
Whatever. What you're saying is that this is indifference or ignorance, rather
than arrogance. Whichever the case, the end result is that, according to those
bugzilla entries, this hole has been known for years.
Years.
/facepalm
The good news here, I think is that these kinds of situations tend to solve
themselves, eventually, one way or the other. It's only a matter of time. I just
need a free weekend.
It won't take that long to can GNOME and run something else...
