If it would be just annoying... It is actually extremely harmful for eyes. Especially with the default black vs. white (or at list bright) background in most application windows. What a "bright" idea, any time a user need to access any menu he'll have to zoom the entire screen in/out. Try to count how many times you access your system menus during a day... Add to this that switching between windows requires some zooming in/out too. Ask any optometrist... A user all day long sitting down in front of a monitor and zooming the entire screen in/out from black to white/bright colours is going to become visually impaired very fast and permanently. The new design is thought in all aspects but this. The way it is now it is a user eyes killer first of all. _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
