What means "disabled by default"? I hope we get the old behaviour
by default :)

<offtopic flamewar="false" excuse="friday">
Anyway, I think these are the kind of changes that irk people a 
lot as far as GNOME approach to usability goes: experimental 
behavior that is highly subjective, which is being forced onto 
the masses with no way of opting out.

I know, I know, this is not the list for this sort of complaints,
but these are things that people perceive as being "the disto",
and I think that Fedora should use its clout to fight these kind
of changes upstream. Especially when they originate from Red Hat :)
(BTW, I dread posting to the GNOME lists about this, I can almost
hear the your-are-not-our-target-customer-eveybody-is-happy-with-it
kind of response...)

No, I'll file one when I get home.

For curiosity's sake, am I the only one that hates this?

Yes, it works brilliantly! It's really really good for reading LKML :)
