Those users who don't want their menu items moving around want to live like automated machines. Forbidding such changes promotes lazyness. If the update removes features that existed in previous version, that is another story. I support you forbidding this type of change. But I really don't buy this "users shouldn't be disturbed by moving a button from left to right". If the user is disrupted to what they are used to, he needs to learn not to (be disrupted). Do we really want to serve a closed-for-learning community? :( Orcan -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
