Comment 674 for bug 532633

the problem is that theses voices are only the minority.
The most ubuntu users, don't test Beta1 ,2 or follow every bugreport.
they will install the new LTS when its available and after the installation the will be surprised/ annoyed / happy

maybe they will google for it, or they will stick to it, or they will never click Install and eject the live cd.

But to be honest. what to google for? Where to find the gconf tool info?
I have to admit, i'm not that unfamilar with ubuntu and lp and stuff, but my first reaction was, uhh where can i change it.

And i have to say it was not easy to find. A lot of blogs etc, reported the issue, but none of these provided a solution.

So imho ubuntu is acting as a guardian for the user.
Is it so much work to implement a checkbox in the Apperance menu?
Without this checkbox i estimate that 80% of the users, will not be able to switch it to the position they like.
