which is the same. reality decides about this fact - not your
intention. i can't see why you are so angry.

what did i do??? possibly, you are too affected by your imaginary
picture of the 'magnificient' thunar? aehhm, did i end in a sect or
so??? what are you barking? thunar is not persistent in the real sense.
this may be of intend. however, then just stating your position would
be enough. why you are so angry about other positions, which you know
are quite arguable.

don't general users open things twice for different use cases? why you
are so <assured>? be a bit more open!

submitting this pledge for enhancement as a bug would be barking,
from my point of view. i really don't understand your viewpoint!?

however, i refuse (bark) to use bugzilla because it still doesn't let
one at least close an account. all the bugzillas in the world still
hold old accounts under my name but with old and dead email addresses
and still sensitive personal data of mine. i don't even have the
passwords anymore to at least delete the sensitive data. this 'intend'
of the bugzilla developers was already harshly discussed (because it is
stealing the freedom from the account owner) but without concrete
result. this is why i never use bugzilla if there is a mailinglist
available. and if not, i most probably don't write at all.
freedesktop.org, for example, makes a difference because of the many
projects for which there is only one account needed and most possibly
valuable in future.

cudos to all Thuar developers. you are great - but sometimes a bit too
sensitive, i think.

best wishes,
