Hi guys, having default colors is really nice, great to see some work there. But aren't we in a feature freeze period.?
I plead for the great "release often" mantra that we tend to forget these times. 4 months between two releases is fairly short most users can live without perfect random colors. 3.0 is not the holy grail, we'll have plenty of time for new fun features in the future. To be more crude, I see no fun in building a gigantic pile of untested new features. Please also listen the complaints of the documentation team, but also of the silent clients who try to build there IT plans on QGIS. Sorry for that, I like when it's fun, but this time, I really don't get what makes it critical to do this now, and not within a months in 3.1 branch.
