Hello desktop team.
We, at the Fedora sound SIG [1] are creating sound themes [2] for fedora.
As we were investigating how to create a sound theme, Lennart pointed
out that GNOME's sound configuration UI does not allow switching
themes, only switching alert sounds.
Now that's a crappy UX!
It would be a crappy UX if we actually wanted to provide sound theme
selection. Which we don't.
There's code to be reused in gnome-media if you want to implement 1)
sound theme selection 2) sound theme customisation. We have no plans for
either in the sound panel for the gnome-control-center.
Oh, and I'd rather you didn't insult people's work when you've done
absolutely no research into the reasoning behind such decisions.
