I respectfully disagree. The options that can be tweaked from Ubuntu Tweak and similar tools (concerning Unity) will not break anything, and for the most part can be changed on the fly (without restarting that is). There is no reason not to include such a tool by default. On 12/14/2011 05:00 P

I'm with James on this one. It would be nice to have a definition of what an Ubuntu application is, but let's face it - that would drive a wedge in the wider community even wider than what currently exists. People would label Canonical as Apple and us users as fanboys, and essentially seek ways
