Comment 6 for bug 221594

I opened this bug many years ago. Nobody did anything about it in spite of many people agreeing with me.

To be honest I would not bother these days, there is too many major things wrong with Ubuntu to bother about trivial but obvious things. Things that affect the on-the-ground user.

Back to this bug, this is the result of poor design and faulty design theory, its wilful not accidental. It ought to be obvious to the designer once pointed out, the same way it is to everyone else.

And yet we wait many years until the bug expires, and call that fixed.
