Right, but when people place you as the destructor of SeaMonkey, and tell you that your only goal is to fight off users of the feature you just helped to survive at all, then they put it way over the top.

Most people probably don't realize that e.g. without my work on them, SeaMonkey 2.0 wouldn't have progress windows at all. The old ones didn't work with the new download manager backend to which we were switching in any case. Nobody else volunteered to write new progress windows that work with the new one, so I did, and e.g. not having other icons available, I just reused the ones we already had in use in the newly written download manager window.

In any case, those people have driven me away enough that I won't work on any improvements of the progress windows, even though I had a few such improvements, including better icons, in work.
