You are very wrong. For example Kate opens all file types when you drag them on
it. Another example is Eclipse where you can add any type of files to project
by simply dragging (but you can't to the icon in the Launcher because of this
bug - so if the Eclipse window is hidden because you are
Kate might have been a bad example. But you kindly missed Firefox and
Google Chrome. Browsers are the most important applications these days.
Drag and droping to Eclipse is also important for adding files to
project. And don't forget about Inkscape - I don't believe it can have
PNG in supported
If somebody is dnding a jpg the goal is likely to open it in an image viewer,
not in a text editor or IDE. - or to gmail.com to attach it, or to Thunderbird

configurable (even if such configuration would be hidden from users it
should be there in case you change your mind or your boss changes his
mind about where to put it). Now we all see how it ended - people want
to move it, you fight
we could spend days discussing the trades, exploration and user testing
we conducted before settling on the left hand side position - left hand
side is quite good default, but everyone is different, there are
lefthanded people and poeple who have different preferences than you,
your test group or
this change would cost the same number of hours to make, irrespective
of when it is made - sorry, but I don't believe it. Even if you could
write this in the same time (I think you can't, and I speak from many
years of experience) you lost hours of testing. And if you did it then
many things that
We mostly were with Ubuntu from the beginning - at least from 6.06 and
now we feel like we are no longer needed and Canonical wants us all to
go away and leave because maybe they want larger userbase and we are too
