I think user input is taken seriously to a point. Just because you are an
artist, does not mean you can design a better paintbrush. If the "users" of
my network had their way, we would not have usernames/passwords, they would
all share 1 folder on the network where everyone put all their documents and
they would never have to log off their computers. So yes sometimes the
people behind the scenes have to ignore a certain level of "user" input.

also, Last time I checked, open source != democracy

Of course no design is perfect, but please make it smart and use some

Its comments like this that make people ignore your suggestions... You are
implying that without you making this comment that Matt and Ton would have
put together a new UI that was not only imperfect, but stupidly put
together. Thanks for saving blender from those guys!
