an issue is good but we should be careful and should define a potential new default in detail. How exactly we want define the new default, having 2 complaints is not much compared to thousand of Windows users. I don't say that we shouldn't change it but we should be clear of what we are doing. We can't change things every time when 1 single person don't like the default.
