As long as GM is not in the GNOME core, I don't see why I should do
things I don't like just to follow GNOME.

It was only a suggestion of Calum, and I told him it was bad.

Yes, that is what I plan to do. I agree to follow the maximum of the
HIG, fabrice already changed a lot of things in the druid to follow the
HIG, but when the result is bad, I don't see why I should follow it.
The HIG is a set of recommendations, not a dictatorial rule to
absolutely follow, at least to my own understanding.
