We are not shipping claws-mail-plugins-fancy in the Xfce spin.

I do. As soon as you have a lot of tabs oben, Chronium uses way more
resources because it spawns a new instance of the browser for every tab.

Chronium will never get into Fedora unless Google stops forking all
random libraries. See

It still does not handle certificate based authentication, which IHMO is
a bigger problem than any random website looking ugly.
But I really think we should remove one browser. I don't really care
which one, let the majority decide.
And we could remove some themes. Currently we are shipping 4 complete
themes: adwaita, albatross, bluebird and greybird. IHMO this is too
much.
Kind regards,
Christoph
Why not take themes down to the primary installed theme, and if needed,
add in help where to get more? Most users accept the default
configuration anyway, as I recall.
