Yet they provide a solution and make users happy. Do I really have to explain why having a solution to a problem is better than having no solution? Especially if this is going on for at least 7 years and hundreds of users complaint about it? >>>> 3) If workaround is implemented, good solution will never be solved >> This is NOT a workaround. > > It is definitely a workaround.

But nope! Someone always know better than them what is good and bad. By the way, this is the reason why the patch gives the option to enable/disable that dialog on the first place. I erroneously thought: "people who want the dialog will enable it and be happy, people who don't will leave it alone and keep discussing about what is the really truly best solution for the next 7 years".
