Well said. The taste of everybody else is formed by the rest of the
distribution. I'm pretty sure it's not a matter of things being
"better" or "worse", it's a matter of what people are used to. Not
respecting this will annoy people, no matter how good the intentions
are. A margin to diverge from this for bringing in improvements
exists, but is quite small.
Well, on the other side, I want to offer soemthing alternative to Unity
which is complete and has its own interface style
The "hide" makes indeed sens with those icons in the lower left corner.
Ah, competition to what the Ubuntu window manager tries to do already.
GNUMail.apps icon shows up in the lower left corner as well as in
Unitys launcher bar.
Oops. I didn't mean to restart discussions I well remember from 5, 8,
10 years ago. I shall shut up now until I can provide code. :-)
well, users should still express their ideas, so developers can pick
them up and improve them.
The first thing you might want to do is start up SystemPreferences and
look for the option to hide mini-windows and see if you feel better.
THat way everything needs to be handled by the unity task bar, about as
on windows.
It will still leave you a problem with hiding I fear.
Thanks for writing and maintaining this great app!
I did not write it :) That was Ludovic Macotte years ago. German and I
tried just to save it from bitrotting, since it is an important app. To
each its credit :)
