 Replying to [comment:10 gfarry]:
 > I believe it's hard to hear for a developer that a feature for which he
 spent some time to implement is not used by users.

 I don't think that's what you're running into here, the developer spending
 time responding to this ticket isn't the one who spent the time designing
 and coding the feature.

 I think the fundamental thing to understand here is that we're happy to
 take any '''functional''' and '''practical''' concerns into consideration
 to improve the behavior (such as the change to make the maximum size half
 the window size in 2.4.1), while "I don't like it" and "It isn't
 comfortable" aren't really arguments that are useful toward improving the
 functionality and as such don't have much weight.
