Of course there won't be, obviously not. But was anyone claiming there 
would be an ideal solution?

I was trying to do some things:

* express my own impressions and preferences and experience as a data point.

* get an idea on the history behind this change and the motivations. I 
learned quite a bit; thanks.

* trying to put the topic on the agenda to explicitly consider. 
Hopefully we can get more data from a representative audience (which I 
also think shouldn't just be the attendees in 2014) to inform this 
discussion.

I think I've done these things now, and now we'll see what's done with this.

Regards,

Martijn
