So you're suggesting... ?
(fwiw, *I* have no idea what "beware of leopard" means)
That illustrates my point exactly! As in replacing "Automatic" with
"Beware of leopard" makes no difference to the (lack of) clarity.
I disagree. We use "automatic" to describe, for instance, our default
cache size decisions, rather than saying "based on the available disk
space and potentially some other stuff" (I don't actually know what
other things come into this, but I guess there might be other things?).
The Privacy settings do not indicate after what amount of time we clear
history, and the Certificates settings under Advanced have an option to
"Select one automatically", rather than describing exactly how we make
the decision.
"Beware of leopard", on the other hand, is just nonsense.
Also did you remember to pack a toothbrush and a towel before heading
out to Portland?
... I also don't know what you're getting at here.
AFAICS nobody is working on GTK and OSX. In the mean time I propose that
"Automatic" not be exposed to users on those platforms who might wonder
what it does (answer: nothing). File under useless-UI
Seems fair, did you file this? Feel free to assign to me and I can look
at doing this.
