Increasingly the change sounds like a good idea just for the increasing motivation it will create to fix broken issues with X. X shouldn't be freezing and the causes of X freezes can be fixed. Yet people will continue to mistakenly hit ctrl-alt-bs even if the software is made perfect. Yes, I think this is an unimportant change, but that doesn't mean that I don't also agree with it. I'm sorry, people in this thread have talked about "windows mentality", but I think the real example of windows mentality is having a "crash" button on your keyboard because your system sometimes freezes. Shall we add a wipe-dotfiles button next because sometimes they become corrupted and the desktop environment no longer lets you log in? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
