thanks for the heads up on this -- I'm reminded of the xscreensaver that
had a similar problem (webcollage) only that one was fixable by simply
editing out the system level command line for the program such that it
only took local images from ~/Pictures or a shared resource that could
be controlled.

I am disappointed that Ubuntu is continuing this line, but it isn't
surprising I suppose: as Charles Eisenstein puts it, when ever you find
human beings doing something brazenly stupid, you needn't dig very far
before you find money as the motivation.  Clearly here, by the corporate
denial of there being anything wrong, we learn that Ubuntu's purpose is
not to serve the person at the terminal, but when push comes to shove,
to serve the corporate profits -- this is especially clear when we can
see from all the examples on this page (outside of the racy band names)
that if they saved showing results until AFTER the complete search key
was entered, we'd avoid some embarrassment.

but not all: I am now grateful to the narrow minds who did not allow me
to roll ubuntu out in our local schools, because the pre-teens would
have a field day with this.  Sure, we can turn it off, but it is on by
default?

I am hoping reason prevails on this, that at the very least the feature
can be completely removed if not left as an install/upgrade option; I
hate having to hack an install just to get the computer I want in my
house, but then, it is because it is a Linux that I will be able to hack
out those places where I disagree with the vendor, so in that respect I
suppose I can't complain really, I can only say, "Thanks for the heads
up" and hope we get warning on when this 'feature' will ship.
