From https://www.gnome.org/gnome-3/ :
"Get things done with ease, comfort and control."
"Simple and easy to use"
"Helps you get things done"
"Finely crafted"
Aren't we being a bit dishonest here? Isn't "drag and drop" the
interaction with the gui that even the most basic users are familiar
with?
"We" didn't write that text.
Anyway, a bug is a bug. This one has been around for a long time, so while it would be nice to fix it, it is difficult to argue that it should be blocker when a) it hasn't blocked many releases before and b) a fix is unlikely to materialize
