You mean the context and dnd stuff... Well, as Olof has already pointed out, we announced that there are checkins to come and nobody objected. When starting to add the posibility to store brush/pattern/... in the context, I even put the question to the ChangeLog. The actual big checkin where I changed all brush/pattern/... access functions was 9 days later and I didn't get any mail in the meantime. Just because I didn't write for many files "using the context here fixes a bug" doesn't mean it didn't. E.g. the device status dialog was totally unusable after a "refresh" and ensuring it's consistency without the context would have needed another weird function to be called from outside. IMHO waiting for context signals and self-updating is much cleaner and less dangerous than the old paradigm and making the ui always sync with the internal state _is_ a bugfix. bye, --Mitch
