(Yeah, I watch that list too, but it's worth pointing out here where lots of
GConf users are...)

It's not quite that easy - if things start breaking because I log into a
host that has GNOME installed in /usr/local/gnome, when I'm usually logged
into a host that has it installed in /usr, that's BAAAAAD. I don't see too
many problems because often enough I have a ~/garnome and a ~/GARNOME on my
build box...
