Re: Design input on bug 1045511

 

Sorry but I completely disagree. This also would mean that later down
the road if we decide to change visual schemes on the project the tools
were already there.
Also the whole point of Elementary is Bring a new User Experience (the
way I see it at least)... Else why would we create pantheon-terminal...
Sticking to a tested tool like gnome-terminal would have been a wiser
choice if the point is to _have_ what people are _used__to__ ....
