Well... I've been told many times on this thread that it's easy. I have 
no problem with it needing work. I don't expect Gnome to be perfect. But 
if people keep saying it's easy without actually giving me reasonable 
way to do it I'll speak up.

I've never said that. Indeed, I've said that I'm willing to put in a 
reasonable amount of work. I've read the Gconf help, I've read parts of 
the XML files. I really have spent a lot of hours on this. But the 
feedback I've received has been roughly equivalent to saying that I must 
figure out how to edit the gconf xml files without help. Personally, I 
think that is more than a reasonable amount of effort because there are 
so many files and they are complex.

I don't expect to have a one-click solution. But I hope you'll 
understand how it seems from my point of view. I'm simultaneously told 
that (1) it's easy and that (2) I have to figure out how to edit a 
complex XML file myself.

Best,
Daniel.
