Again, I don't understand why this is expected. I'm a software engineer and if someone said "closing this because principle! even though user wants it", I will most definitely support my position somewhere. Since this is a community project, why can't that place be public bugtracker instead of private emails?
- OJFord 5y agoI just mean that the other commenter's expecting it (I think) from experience, saying that that's normal there or that it doesn't come as a surprise to them. Again, not saying it's good and fine or that they think that.
- alxlaz 5y agoIt's not expected in general, it's the kind of thing I expect from Gnome, and specifically, on Gnome's bug tracker.
- BrightGlow 5y agoWhat's not to understand? Feature requests are closed if there are no plans to implement a certain feature. The developers are just being honest about their plans. Users wanting it or making arguments as to why they want it is irrelevant. Surely there have been times when you've said "no we're not going to implement that feature"?
