I think information on how users use the system, and what they want from
it is always interesting. The problem is to organize the collect of the
information in a way it's easy to analyze. A survey could be a good idea
to gather this type of information.

Also, having popular requests from users doesn't mean we will implement
them :) We have to keep with our policy : keep it fast and easy to use :)

About the number of users, I personally doesn't care too much. Sure,
having a good rank in Distrowatch is nice, but we can live without it :)
