I would really like to open this up to the discussion for the users and developers of Fedora. This feature is very ingrained in a lot of our muscle memories, deeply embedded in our internal and external documentation for not just end users but entry level admins, group admins, and a myriad of folks that really do have a use for the terminal. Sure you can just as easily get to it by selecting it from a menu, so that actually goes in my favor. If we're trying to 'protect' the user, why have it in the menu at all? If the end user that Gnome seems to care about won't notice, why not leave it so that the people who have a clue and have the capability of helping out don't get pissed off by yet another 'lets break history in favor of some "usability" we think is right for the fabled holy grail of an end user'. This is yet another move in a long history of Gnome moves that makes me wish somebody forked gnome a while ago and removed all these stupid 'save the end user from themselves' changes. For god sakes, make a 'end user safe' UI that has all these things in it, and then make a 'real user' UI that actually allows work to be done in the way that it has been done for years. -- Jesse Keating RHCE (http://geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (http://www.fedoralegacy.org) GPG Public Key (http://geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub) Was I helpful?
