Everything on that list except for maybe shared caches... and icons
are features that can make a practical difference in how useful a
program is. Not all of them apply to everyone, or to the specific

that wastes my time with bad open/save dialogs, etc.  Sorry for the
offtopic reply, but that comment bugged me.
