And stop trying to pretend that the current non-default with GNOME on top isn't seen as specification of a preference by everybody.
It may be seen as a "specification of a preference" by some, but
saying "by everybody" is a major stretch. I think you're assuming that
new users and people with no particular stake in the desktop selection
are going to give a lot more importance to what's on top/bottom than
they are.
If I get a menu of some kind, and it has two or three options - I
don't automatically assume the one that's "on top" is being
recommended -- just a fact that if you're going to sort something top
to bottom one of the things has to be on top.
Just because it was written "Lennon & McCartney" didn't mean that John
was getting "top" billing. :-)
I do agree with Martin that installing both -- while having some
merits -- would be creating a bunch of new problems.
Best,
Zonker
