Dear Gnome 4 Devolopers,
- could I please be able to close app/windows during my alt-tab browsing by just moving my finger from the tab key to F4 or the more traditional Q key while holding at the same time the already pressed ALT one?
- shouldn't be natural to be able to close apps when right-clicking on open apps icons in the dash?
- where average/normal users should forward/discuss eventual feature request.. doesn't Gnome has a forum?
I love Gnome but at the same time I struggle to understand it sometimes..
PS
who kidnapped the Ghost of Funk???

I agree though - providing this incentive for apps to be ported would certainly be divisive - to the point it would never get up. The thought experiment behind it is a funny thing.

One of the most disappointing aspects of GNOME 3 for me is that one faulty extension prevents the whole shell loading. Would any of these proposed changes prevent this being the case for GNOME 4, presuming it maintains a similar extensions system?
Somebody was asking about disabling screen locking under GNOME Shell? To do that I had to run:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.session idle-delay 0

One thing they should do better (if there is resources of course) is extension development documentation. There is too little and too poor documentation to even start developing them let alone to create something actually useful. I know that there are many extensions, but I find it painful to create my own since the APIs are so poorly documented.

I agree. I like the drastic approach, but it's not very user-friendly to break extensions, which is one of the main reasons to use GNOME Shell in the first place. At some point breakage is needed, but it's better to do it at, say, 4.6 or so to give devs some time to update their extensions. That way, users would be able to keep the majority of extensions.
