The people replying here may not by GNOME developers, but in that case they are also not going to be the ones making a decision about the default state of this functionality, so who are you trying to convince, here?
You can make a point—once—but there are no expectations that the GNOME developers will do what you want. They are the ones making the desktop. The only way for you to have actual influence in the decision making process is to become a GNOME developer. GNOME developers read and listen to feedback, if stated respectfully, but we’re not beholden to whoever shouts loudest or longest.
