Along with some history (including for GNOME), we're told why Jeremy considers this beneficial, before asking the community to 'weigh in' on this discussion. This post was closed when Ubuntu noble (24.04) reached Feature Freeze, with thanks given to all who participated in the discussion.

We're told why these changes are being made (with some history), and then given a FAQ (which includes details on overriding this default if necessary).
