Your concern is understandable but the way you put it into words was rather 
like a threat. I beg both parties to calm down and focus on the practical side 
of the problem.

This bug report says that GTK3 breaks usability. If there's a good patch to 
cure that, it could be applied. If not, something should be done about how 
Gnome affects people outside it. After all, Debian isn't equal to Gnome even if 
its default DE is Gnome.
