The most hilarious aspect of this is that they got a huge amount of shit when they abandoned Sawfish for Metacity because Metacity was extremely simple and non-extensible while Sawfish was very complicated and completely scriptable.

Now that Gnome has gone back to a fully scripted WM people bitch and moan there there isn't a huge configuration GUI application built into it that will instantly allow them to tweak the desktop how they like it.

That's… an entirely interesting interpretation of the bitching and moaning I've seen.
