That's a good point. In GNOME the UI for mouse a11y features was always in gnome-control-center, but it looks as though Cinnamon has moved it out of c-c-c and into files/usr/share/cinnamon/cinnamon-settings/modules/cs_accessibility.py in src:cinnamon. Look for "a11y.mouse". So removing the Recommends from c-c-c was definitely correct, even if you might want to add it back somewhere else (probably c-s-d). This still looks like approximately "the same shape" as in GNOME - UI in a settings app, controlling an implementation in a core desktop component - which is really the only arrangement that could make sense for features like this one. (As a side note, this is GSettings, not gconf. GSettings is an abstraction layer in GLib for the equivalent of GNOME 2's use of gconf. In practice the backend for it on Unix systems is dconf, which is a more direct replacement for gconf.) smcv
