I'm really unexcited by dialogue boxes..

On http://www.nearwildheaven.com/GNOME/ this article presents the latest and greatest in Gnome GUI improvements.

Do our users love this sort of 'pissing contest' between file save/open dialogs or whatever? Do they prefer to admire the subtle differences between the dialogs in Swing/Gnome/KDE or even Windows file dialog boxes? If I personally had a choice between giving up the KDE dialogs in favour of this new Gnome style to avoid confusing users, do you think I personally give a toss? KDE and Gnome are just toolkit apis, and as soon as they get this sort of nonsense behind them the better in my opinion.
