And they don't certainly want one app to behave totally different than another. It has much higher priority than inter-OS sameness. If you download firefox for linux from mozilla you'll get different firefox than if you download firefox from mozilla for windows. That's a good thing. Period. I use Gnome in Fedora and I want all applications I use to behave and look similar. It's not the highest priority for choosing an application, but how does that application looks/behave in other environment does not matter to me at all. And most people are like that, only they use different environment than me (KDE in Fedora, some DM in other distro, Mac OS X, Windows, ...). > Third: This one annoys me most.

The "open link present in clipboard on middle-click" seems to me like quite handy feature (unless you don't know about it) and in linux environment it's IMHO better suitable for the middle-click action than autoScroll.
