Where anybody talked about democracy??? Listening arguments is not democracy. And why to assume that users are wrong? Some of them are developers, you know? Enlightened maybe? :P
How you can agree with Uriel, when he only deliver arbitrary opinions, but no arguments?? Yes, he sometimes is right, but he never explain reasons. This is way to annoy people, not to convince them, even when he is right.

My personal tab annoyance is having to use one key command to move
through frames, and another to move through tabs. It also requires
the ability to lock a frame, or a separate key command for tab
creation and frame creation. (And even then, if a program spawns a
new window, does it show up as a tab or a frame?) If these new things
act like collapsed frames instead of something else entirely, it
should make for a more usable system. Not to mention that the title
text will actually all fit on the screen...
I also want to point out that I 100% support uriel and his argument
that if he always listened to users, wmii would be a pile of shit by
now. Democracy is imparative in national government as you don't get
to pick from a variety of governments. You're stuck with the one
you've got in your county. Better a bunch of small idiots than one
big idiots. However, with software, you can pick from all sorts of
democratic projects and enlightened monarchs. I'll take an
enlightened monarch -- a single person who can develop a coheseive
system the "right way" -- than a gaggle of rulers any day. Perhaps
I'm just pessimistic, but I'm happy to see someone standing firm on
the issues they deem critical.

Garbeam is not a saint and have faults, but at least try to discuss.
