Are you serious? Really? You must have a very tenuous grasp of OS internals.

No, every change requires extensive documentation and retraining or you will have confused and disgruntled users.

Who does this affect?
1) People using the console a lot who also run X (remember, runlevel 3 hasn't changed). Desktop users don't use consoles, server users don't use X (I hope). Only a few species of geek remain.

This dichotomy exists only in your imagination. Desktop users sometimes interact with servers, server users nearly always interact with desktops.

2) People recovering from X crashes. Bugs. Errors. Things we could be fixing and making not happen rather than accommodating this bizzare F1 fetish.

People reading documentation. Please change the behavior _after_ updating all existing documentation.
