Albert,

Of course I agree, in theory.
But we also need to acknowledge that we are not all-knowing super-geniuses
with unlimited time and man+woman power.

I don't think we need to be so hard on ourselves.

IMO we have a very short time window to implement critical BIC changes.
And critical BIC changes that require no source code changes are even easier to approve.

Anyway, that's my opinion.

PS. moving libexec/kdesu to bin/kdesu would break the Dev Platform freeze.
Do I continue with the co-installability stuff?
