Damn it, you’re right. This goes directly against Policy.

Leo, what do you think could be done about this? Since dconf is not a
very widespread tool, I’d appreciate if you could rename the binary -
and maybe also the package name, since it’s confusing for users who look
for GNOME-related packages and stomp on a sysadmin tool.

Cheers,
