mpt it seems your assumption is that we want to go, we don't, we really, really 
don't want to leave unity and Ubuntu. I am not a developer just a user but I 
have tried to help out with bug submissions and testing in the past. The 
problem we have is that we are being left with a stark choice, go back to 12.04 
which was OK but not any where near as good as 12.10 is  or 13.04 promises to 
be, or move some where else. There are two currently supported linux choices 
internally,  RHEL or Ubuntu. If Ubuntu 13.04 onwards can't be used because we 
have stuff that, rightly or wrongly, is supplied needing systray whitelist then 
the only place to go is RHEL if we want support. Other DE's or Ubuntu flavours 
could be used but we would be on our own.  I have absolutely no influence on 
the developers of the software I have to use at work, its mandated and I have 
to use it. 
As just a user I am between a rock and a hard place on this, with two groups of 
developers who are going in divergent directions and apparently have no 
inclination to listen to me, effectively squeezing me out of Ubuntu.  So please 
stop giving "useful" advice on how this is somehow my fault and that I should 
be careful what distro I move to  because they may break me in the future. I 
did nothing more than use Ubuntu and comment on a  bug when something I have to 
have got broke.
