I can see various pros and cons of the situation. What I would love is not intentionally limiting customization. Seems that each new version of ubuntu core UI functions get changed in an attempt to make the interface better, but I caution against making it really hard for users to switch or customize.
It's also driving me nuts that I can't just roll the mouse past the battery indicator to check the time estimate/percentage. Clicking twice to see something so seemingly simple is a little absurd. I would really love the option to just show the data in the toolbar when on battery if I have the space too. Or that the new indicator applet shows 1 red bar when I'm at 100% battery (seems to be a bug #405148), when the old tools worked great. With the new indicator system I still have figured out how to check my apc ups status without having to go to the cli apcaccess, used to be able to use gapcmon docked in the panel. One possible way forward is to default to the custom variants of gnome for ubuntu but to also have an alternative package that keeps more of the expected gnome behavior. -- please include status messages/tooltips https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527458 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
