See, this is where we apparently disagree. The packaging guideline exists *because* the to-display-where-or-not decision should not be up to individual packages/packagers. This goes beyond packaging policy/guidelines. It is a usability issue, and should be considered carefully(1) when designing future iterations of (gnome|kde|redhat)-menus. (1) Usability a SIG/group would come in handy here, oh maybe something like: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Usability -- Rex -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
