I submitted, what I thought, was a reasonably structured and detailed proposal to change one flag in a PKGBUILD file which would have few (if any) side effects.
The whole point of a proposal is to drive a discussion; there is no assumption it is absolutely correct. I don't see that as "griping". If I'd just said "top sucks, you should fix it", then fine - but I didn't do that.
To be clear, the real issue people are having with you here isn't your proposal. It's the fact that you submitted it to the bug tracker, the maintainer saw it, thought about it, and rejected it...
In general, discussions about defaults are silly, as long as things are configurable at run-time, so I don't understand why that bugreport was accepted at all... Cheers, -- Leonid Isaev
