It needs to come to a conclusion.</p>
<p>First off UX is VDG's domain. They should of course work together with us devs on designing the best possible UX, but on the other side devs have a responsibility to value VDG's opinion and in the end execute their UX concepts (assuming that these have been produced with current best practice and knowledge of UX/UI design methodology).</p>
<p>Now coming to this name change: several active VDG members and Plasma devs, including native English speakers, are in favor of changing the <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">Smart</tt> name. On KWin side Vlad is against it, I am in favor of it (mostly because the VDG is in favor of it and I don't see anything inherently wrong with the new names) and David seems to be ok with either decision.</p>
<p>So <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/p/zzag/" style="

padding: 0 4px;">@zzag</a>, is your only argument that the name was always <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">Smart</tt> and therefore should not change or are there other arguments? Because the name just being always this way and users maybe got used to it is a very weak argument and get trumped by selecting a more descriptive naming scheme. Otherwise I propose the following:</p>
<ol class="remarkup-list">
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Check back on the enum/config/whatever names in the current revision. There was some indecision on how they should be. <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/p/davidedmundson/" style="

color: #19558d;
background-color: #f1f7ff;
border: 1px solid transparent;
border-radius: 3px;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 0 4px;">@davidedmundson</a>: can you take a last look at these?</li>
<li class="remarkup-list-item">Commit <strong>after</strong> 5.17 branch-off. This way we have till January to change the names a bit more in case we missed something and without causing several string changes on user installs.</li>
