Another issue that I don't think has been raised yet (sorry if it has, this thread reached the limits a while ago) is that the changes we make to GNOME aren't intended just for existing GNU/Linux users or people with similar interests. My understanding is that we want GNOME to be useful to people that haven't been attracted yet to any of the existing free desktops (most of the people in this world). Somewhat related, you need to take into account people's natural resistance to change. A factor that isn't equally relevant when surveying future users as it is when surveying present ones.
