It is pointless to argue here about stuff that can't be changed

the reals of the Fedora project. To get back to specific, if you have a
itch to scratch with a specific behaviour on the GNOME desktop, it is
very unlikely to get changed here by applying a patch against the upstream
code or data. The correct behaviour as an Open Source project participant is
to debate it upstream where there is an infrastructure (usability team, tools
and mailing-list) in place to get this processed. If there was no upstream
venue, then yes here would be an alternate forum by lack of better choice
but Jeff is 100% on-spot in this case, this is a GNOME usability request,
and discussion should be process there, not here.
What users could hope for is that those representatives of the Gnome
development group within @redhat could be the voice of @redhat's users,
so that the gnome group doesn't get more and more joe-random-opinion (of
which to ignore), they can get a more aggregated user base opinion from
vendor representatives.
