Which brings to mind this blogpost by Ted Unangst [http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/features-are-faults http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/features-are-faults], in particular this quote:
> Right now there is what I can only describe as a conspiracy to connect something called gstreamer-plugins-bad to the internet. I do not want something called gstreamer-plugins-bad to be connected to the internet because that doesn’t sound like a good idea, but apparently somebody decided to call it a feature, and just like that it had to happen. It’s as if somebody looked at the UML diagram for my browser and realized that the boxes labeled malicious input and gstreamer-plugins-bad weren’t yet connected, and in their utopian vision of the internet, all of the boxes must be connected.
