So because there are maybe majority of happy (and ignorant) users, we
will ignore rather loud opposition to this change? Really nice way to
deal with community.

And no one asks to revert. I was ok about lack of icons till there was
easy to find and easy to use option to turn it back. No there are
plans to eliminate this option. Smells like pushing a change no matter
others think.

Google for 'PulseAudio Hate' and then maybe try to understand what
dangerous road have GNOME project taken last two releases. We don't
that luxury to waste users just because we think what we do is
technically right.

Cheers,
