It seems that only the Gnome team regards this as common sense. |
| 16 |
Others, such as the Qt team and QA regard the versioned useflag |
| 17 |
solution as more sensible. |

I think we can conclude that there is no perfect solution, and we |
| 20 |
simply have different preferences. |

That said, I'm not sure we absolutely need a policy. Though I would |
| 23 |
agree it would be more elegant if we can solve this matter, to make it |
| 24 |
easier to grasp by our users. In that case the QA proposal makes sense |
| 25 |
to me. |
