While this thread reflects a bit about some community observations on how things are handled in GNOME, and i support such a discussion, I find it a bit off-topic. Can we start a new thread discussing these issues or so.
Let us stay on topic. Can an applications use Zeitgeist for technical/optimization (NOT FEATURES OR UX) causes? And how does it proceed? 1) Implement first and require dependency later. 2) Request blessed dependency and then implement, if the blessing is given. I would like to know an answer from the release-team if possible, since this is not really design related.
