crazy "features" and preferences that only suit 1% of the population should not be littered all over the UI like many KDE (and gnome 1.4) apps... I dont like it if features that someone wants are just removed alltogether, but sticking advanced features into GConf really is the best way of doing things. I used to love sawfish, but its configuration dialog became an utter nightmare... it would take me 20 mintues of digging throug hthe settings to get a fresh sawfish install into a sane state. Having simple config dialogs for the most common prefs, and having the rest set to defaults that *just work* while letting your tweak it if you want to by using GCong is really a great way of doing things. There is also a tweakUI like utility somewhere out there to make this easier for "semi-power-users" who are afraid of GConf.
