We can however offer serious smart configuration and option GUIs where smarts can't be done. I find it hard to believe that those who install or log on in KDE could not have a different configuration from those that log in via Gnome for both gnome and kde settings for such things as switching buttons around. Anything that doesn't conform to the HIG of gnome or kde in those settings is a bug, it might not be an important one but it _is_ a problem and not a feature. The solutions will be non-obvious and a real pain in the neck sometimes but we can't just dismiss these problems because their too hard or require too much ingenuity to solve. So solutions people?
