i find that people that don't like one don't like the other, usually because they are \
using a crappy pointer device or a pointer device with a crappy driver or a pointer \
device with a crappy configuration. i don't think we need N different configuration \
switches for this. one shoudl be enough. we can always refine it later and add more \
if needed, but we can't take configuration options we offer in a release back without \
some serious backlash.

(been there, done that, starting with the "icon zooming" thing in kde3)
