I'm new to this list, but i would like to say, that i agree with Ali. We
have discussed the problems with the patches in b.g.o in the last few
days in a more privat group in irc. I think that this little fixes can
be ablied easily and the general usability of gnome will profit from
this patches.

The people that write this patches, wouldnt write new ones, if this happens 2 or 3 times. It doesn't make sense to write patches if the wouldn't get applied.

Finaly i hope that some of the core developers can comment the mail from Ali, because this is a important topic and we should discuss it.
