Re: lock down features

[Glynn Foster <glynn foster sun com>]

Hey,

While I'd love to see some of this stuff going into 2.2, I think I would
prefer to concentrate getting the various GNOME preferences a little
saner in terms of -

	o GConf notification
	o sensitivity of widgets with non-writable configuration
	o handling --break-key, --recursive-unset etc..
	o making it easier to setup default preferences *

because I'm not sure if lock down really makes sense until we've got the
other pieces of the puzzle solved, although I'd love to see this all
happen.

I'm definitely in agreement with the 2.2 schedule worries and given the
state of 2.1.x recently I think we probably have other things to sort
out that, perhaps, are more important.

		I dunno, call me a cynic...

* Havoc, you've felt the pain with the panel, right?
