The result would be distros swapping the wallpaper and we have unreadable text. This is something which will happen, I have been too long in this business to not expect otherwise. We want to provide a good experience for everyone. And that means this change just cannot go in, sorry about that.

  I do not know how the situation is as I don't have tested all distros. But I also think that this is irrelevant. We have a technical problem here and that needs to be fixed.

  I asked for addressing this issue, if it's addressed then it's fine for me. Personally I would recommend you against the change due to the history, but design decisions are up to the vdg and won't be blocked by me.
