I have been reading 100s of e-mails and shaking my head. This "left, right buttons" issue is turning into a war over trifles.
The Ubuntu Developers have a right to develop Ubuntu anyway they like (within reason). YOU (plural) develop new themes and offer them to the users. The users can make choices with their open-licensed *individual copy* of the OS: They can accept or reject any theme, any option, any choice on their own private PCs. There is no need to argue over individual tastes. - I like blue, you like red, so, I make mine blue, and you make yours red. - Ubuntu gives individuals the greatest amount of choice of most OSs. - I can compile my own kernel, I can create and alter themes, boot-up, wallpaper, screen-savers, etc., I can choose any of tens of thousands of programs. There are more options than most users know what to do with. - Thank YOU for YOUR innovations and imaginations and YOUR Linux expertise! Keep up the good work, and continue to offer us your best and newest art and innovation. It is YOUR right, after all, it is YOUR baby (as long as it does not turn evil and hurts people - leave that to Microsoft).
