CSD discussion done now?
Very, VERY happy and grateful Xfce camper here since Lucid. And funny thing is that, even although Xfce development didn't move for some time, it now seems to move quite quickly. Nevertheless, it always "just worked™", perfect for production boxen.
Surprised to see Liam mark the "restore panel settings" as new, since I'm almost certain, it was already there in 4.12/ 4.14? Not sure though on when exactly it was introduced. Do remember some issues of it not working between different LTS versions though...
And yes, while Xfce is a breath of consistency, sometimes things do change. Like the whole discussion on CSD. Has that been resolved now? Although I personally am not a fan, I must commend the Xfce devs for having the discussion. Be honest, "some out there" can be not so kind or reasonable, are rather "but-on-all-the-systems-in-Skeggie" centered, and Simon took more than I think he ever deserved. And despite this, the team stayed open minded and is offering (some sort of) respite: I personally was very happy to see a "client side decorations (restart required)" ON/ OFF tick box in mousepad, and I hope this will be a trend popping up in other packages. (Sure, blame me for being an old fart who thinks old menus/ menu placement are good, and hates looking for default functions in new fangled "jeez-your-mobile-phone-has-2-27"-screens!" hamburger menus or default "Open", "Save", "Close", or "Cancel" button placement tourism...
