Talking about the specific issue (not as a general concept), the request in tdf#156311 should had been optional, not imposed to everyone. It was not _that_ hard to imagine that the change of behavior would not be welcome by many users (myself included), and the reports about it were almost immediate. Changing some long-time behavior seems to be the norm now, as if such changes are "evident" improvements for everyone. Additionally, the suggested option could had possibly be interpreted the other way: make the "cycle" behavior the default, and IMO the default should be the prior behavior. That point should not be "useless". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
