It should be mentioned that the discussion would be much more productive if there was actually an official stance, a wiki documentation, a blog post, or *anything* explaining the reasons for the change.

This was made for NotifyOSD, for the MessagingMenu and for most of the non-trivial changes Ubuntu introduced.

The closest the users got to an explanation was the latest blog entry in Ivanka Majic's blog (http://www.ivankamajic.com/?p=281), but that post raised only the questions and none of the answers. Even worse, it showed that the design is not an unanimity *not even among the design team itself*.

I'm not saying that the explanation should satisfy everyone. All I'm saying is that it should exist.
