I think so.

This is OK with me.

I think this is a good idea.
The history of the software selection is "I took over what Guido Berhoerster 
left behind and try to not break anthing by
avoiding touching things as far as possible" :-)

Additionally, I do run my customized config and seldom do fresh installs for 
testing, so I do never see how it really
looks and feels :-)

Maybe this is even worth discussing on openSUSE-factory, because I don't know 
how much readers opensuse-xfce has. I have
only subscribed myself end of last year :-)
