The only way not to be forcing anybody is to stick with the least
common denominator for everything. That flat out stops progress.

As I said: I am not to excited about those apps either. I think
sandboxing can be a security feature, but not while everything needs
X11. Great software -- but only when you are safe to assume that
everybody is nice to each other. We really need to get rid of that
insecure crap!

So am I, but I still like to be able to have different versions of my
distro of choice. I do sometimes break things during an upgrade or
during the tailoring:-) Maybe you are a better tailor than me, but I
really enjoy the safety net. And yes, my systems are heavily tailored.
How else would I be able to implement such a proposal?

But you need to keep your eyes open for new ideas. And sometimes you
find them in the most unexpected places:-)
