The Grumpy Editor's GNOME 3 experience

Well, I didn't say they were lazy, but it just "seems" that they are. One could interpret that as being the same as just calling them lazy. But that may also not be too bad of a thing to say. As Larry Wall once said: "Lazy programmers are the best programmers". :)

I know when I support products, the more options it has, the more work it takes to support the product. IIRC, during the 1->2 switch, that was one of the reasons they took out some of the features. It was too much work to support them. I think the moving to another workspace by pushing the mouse to the side of the window was one of the things that was dropped for this reason.

That feature is a major part of my work flow and I took it personally. That's also the #1 reason when ever I install a new desktop, the first thing I do is to replace metacity. Which is also the most time consuming part of installing a new desktop, as gnome makes it very hard to replace it.
