Be aware that we're looking specifically for SERIOUS AND MAJOR
REGRESSIONS, not for annoyances you didn't think to file in
bugzilla before. We are looking for (and hoping not to hear)
"Monday's kernel works, today my machine crashes on boot" or
"test3's samba served content, today it doesn't" or that kind
of thing.

What the HELL is the new desktop background supposed to be? It reminds
me of:
(a) Fingerprint smudges on the monitor
(b) The Southern California wildfire smoke that I hate breathing whenever I
go outside nowadays
(c) LCD damage caused by pressure/stress on certain parts of the display
EVERY SINGLE ONE of these is in the "things I'd rather not think about
when I'm trying to use my computer" category. </RANT> I'm guessing
it's not
really a "SERIOUS AND MAJOR REGRESSION" but I'm mentioning it just in
case there's anyone else who hates this background as much as I do. (If
I'm the only person with this opinion, feel free to ignore me, though.)
