Uhm, nearly. I would reformulate a little bit:

Do we want to keep the (IMHO, YMMV) most efficient way to open a new
terminal readily available, or do we want to force all the regular
terminal users (which are MANY, IM_NS_HO) use other methods less
efficient or even install a whole additional package (that they have to
know of that it even exists, and how it's named) to get this
oh-so-scary-to-your-average-windows-user menu option "Open terminal"
back?

What is gained by removing the option, and what does it cost to add it
back later. Compare. For me, a clear case.


Regards,
Daniel
