Yes, absolutely, -1 to merging until we're out of freeze, outstanding elements of review are handled, and it doesn't break tests, etc. Tim, querying why we haven't merged a PR that you effectively abandoned doesn't seem particularly fair either. My reply is certainly *not* to say it's for a vendor to fix, it certainly is to question why if it's important to you that PR languished in its current state? Out of interest, what JDK and OS are we talking about? And also, does switching to FlatLaF provide a more usable alternative? Could it be a better choice of out-of-the-box default? The only hi-dpi device I've currently got that's useful for testing this is a Chromebook with Linux containers - works fairly well there, but the environment is a little odd! > Asking the user on start needs to be coordinated with the other startup > dialogs (Import Settings, Anonymous data sending).

Yes, the import settings stuff has been on my mind for a while, since Eric and I discussed it around templating in new build, etc. although it's come up in other discussions since. But I've not found any time to follow up on my thoughts, and not sure if anyone else has either. I do think there's some merit to a sort of meta project to concentrate on the post-install experience - like Ubuntu did with papercuts a few years back. On the Ant issue, Tim, please check 12.1 beta and file a JIRA with details. I usually try and check a bunch of start ups with clean userdir, but haven't checked Ant in current cycle I think.
