Ok, hoping that some are still reading answers to this bug I will drop a
few lines here:

Two days ago I started a discussion on the Power User mailinglist
(ubuntu-power-us...@lists.ubuntu.com). I hope that together we can come
up with some solutions to the problem that Ubuntu Unity lacks anything
like configurability. I want Unity to be  more configurable and I want
Canonical to listen to the users if they come up with such an issue.

Concerning, for instance,  bug 733349, we got a user who wrote a patch
which should -- in my opinion -- be integrated into Ubuntu by default.
If it is against their design decision then ok: but one can still keep
the default settings of the system to work according to their design
decisions and on the other hand one can try to offer options to
configure the system easily. This both can be done.

On the Power User List I am trying to convince the people that we need a
trimmed down version of Ubuntu Tweak (or something like that) which will
be integrated into the default installation as a part of the Gnome
Control Panel. Thus one can integrate those  options to configure Unity,
which are currently found in CCSM, into the default installation (and
one can thus include them in the Gnome Control Panel). In anyway I
cannot understand why these options are only available via CCSM. The
tool easily breaks Unity and additionally it makes no sense to offer
options, which decide if the launcher "dodges windows" or "stays
visible" all the time are only accessible by installing additional
software.

So please join the discussion there. It seems that the larges part of
the members of that list are on the side of those who want to make Unity
more configurable. But the more voices the better. I want a real
discussion and I hope we can thus convince the Unity developers to
listen more to the users.
