Are there tweaks to get a better save-file dialog?
What happens right now with the attachment link in a bugzilla comment,
right-click, link save as... the window can not be moved to see what is
behind that file dialog window. How can it be moved? Fiddling with the
titlebar just resizes the FF window. Now moving the file dialog window
moves both. This can apeparently not be undone, so Abort is the only way
out.
Inside that filedialog its cumbersome to navigate with keyboard. The
focus is appearently in the filename, which makes it easy to lose the
info from bugzilla. ctrl+l used to open a path dialog. The only
workaround is to use the mouse to navigate starting from /. Fortunately
it remembers the last folder in "Recent entries".

The lack of visual feedback from apps like pidgin or skype is
disgusting. Does upstream have some cool new thing cooking for such apps
that is just not yet in 3.16?
Empathy is appearently still in early development stage. The import
wizard is drawn incorrectly, the UI looks odd in many places, it will
most likely not import the history of other apps. And the visual
feedback it provides is odd as well.
There is that topicons extension which is supposed to move the app icons
out of that silly tray from the lower left corner. But it does not work
for me. Does it work for anyone else? Appearently the API changed and
noone bothered to update the extension. I tried the variants from
Rub4ek/topiconsmod and anarsoul/topIcons.

How can I influence the default app for a given mimetype?
On my system gimp is used for pdf documents, instead of evince.
There seems to be nothing for such task in control center.
Does digikam/fate and the libs they pull in influence that by any chance?!

Many months (or years?) ago someone made GNOME3 usable by providing a
knob to control the result of ctrl-w. Instead of closing the window it
wipes the just typed word, as expected. I think it used to be in
control-center,details. Now with SLE12 I can not find this knob anymore.
What happend to it, how do I get a usable ctrl-w?

I just noticed that pidgin fails to notify properly when a new GW
conversion is requested. It used to blink the icon, and play a sound.
Now neither happens. In the prefs the sounds are set to default, and
appearenly pidgin is unable to play any sound.
That leaves the visible notification. How is an app supposed to notify
that something happend? I just got that silly popup that a window is ready.

One annoying thing with TW is the grouping of windows per app in the
Alt+Tab switcher. While I can get away with a single
xterm+thunderbird+whatever window, it becomes cumbersome with
private+non-private Firefox windows.
Does our version of GNOME contain a knob to get a usable behaviour?
If not, please add one. GNOME Tweak Tool does not seem to contain a knob.

How does one move firefox tabs from one window to another? With a
usable GNOME, as shipped in 11.4, one drags it down to the desired
window in the taskbar, which causes it to come to the front. Now the tab
can be dropped into that window.
Now with TW this is very cumbersome: one has to click to the tab thing
in the hope that the window becomes unmaximised or otherwise changes
size. This causes the other windows to become visible. Now there is a
slim chance that the desired window is visible, and the tab can be moved
over to that window.
