Oh, PLEASE people. Let's not have another round of bikeshedding about this AFTER the feature is already implemented!
This is not an argument about the colour of the bikeshed. In terms of that analogy, this has gone something like this: Someone says the bikeshed doorknob is hard to turn and we should have a handle. There’s some discussion, I say maybe, but lets not do it unless we have a good design. Someone else comes up with the beginnings of a good design for a handle, but there’s no consensus about that and it all goes quiet. Some time later a voice says that if nobody does anything it’ll get forgotten (which is what I was hoping would happen). I repeat that it’s better not to do it without a good design and nod off. When I wake up, a handle has been installed by hot-melt glueing a bit of rough sawn timber to the doorknob. I complain. Another voice tells me to shut up, we’ve done it now. — Jón
