Feature added by: Tejun Heo (teheo) Feature #306412, revision 1, last change by Title: Easy and unified way to enable/disable optional/experimental features openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Tejun Heo (teheo) Description: When new things are introduced, it always generates certain amount of controversy. It's sometimes due to the quality of the initial implementation; other times, the feature itself isn't appealing to large subset of the userbase. Examples of this type of features include compiz, beagle and pulseaudio. Given that features which generate a lot of controversies are desktop related as they are the most visible and that as a distro openSUSE wants to ship and experiment with new features, having an easy and unified way to opt in and out of controversial features would resolve a lot of griefs without harming test coverage too much. I suggest installing new features by default and ask whether the user wants to opt in and out of those features from ggreeter. It wouldn't add another step while still providing choices upfront. Also, the same selection should be available through control pannel. This feature would be superset of fate#305296. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306412
