--- Comment #8 from Alain Knaff <k...@kde.lka.org.lu> --- >> I'm just wondering why such disruptive functions still exist in the X API :-( > > Because you cannot break it. But *why* can't you remove it? Even screensavers don't depend on this nowadays (just tried it. Start sesson with xgrab.so workaround. Lock Screen. Press Alt-F2. Nope, this *doesn't* bring up a command prompt, screen stays safely locked.) > In fact currently there are proposals to add exactly this to Wayland to allow > backward compatibility. One more reason not to move over to Wayland... But seriously, what kind of *useful* functionality is this supposed to bring? I mean, useful to the user, not to advertisers, marketers, spammers and scammers... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
