Comment (by deryni):

 Replying to [comment:168 stuporglue]:
 We have taken into account the complaints that the cap of four lines was
 too small and have increased it to a maximum of half the window. Virtually
 everyone we asked about that change (including people who came
 complaining) agreed that that would likely be more than enough for them.

 As that change has not yet been in a release (but will be in 2.4.1 when it
 releases soon) we are still waiting for further feedback on this issue
 once people get a chance to try it.

 I would also like to thank you for in all your comments being reasonable
 and calm and presenting your statements as what they are (personal
 opinions and feelings) and not assuming that you speak for some large
 unspoken majority of people. Also for realizing that despite the negative
 effects a given change might have had on your usage for the moment that
 the changes are not intended as attacks and are intended to make things
 better for everyone in the long run.
