Let's finally get good Chromium window borders on Ubuntu
groups.google.comthe origin of the term bike shedding refers to the way groups of people's attention is overly drawn to the form of the interface edges--let's call them borders--of the space designed functionally to contain the bikes, when in fact all the most important parts of the project are what is in the interior space of the bike shed, that which is within the borders.
Haha true, and I'd definitely agree that Chromium's borders are one of the least important parts of the software.
However, just because something is less important than something else doesn't mean it's not worth changing.
I doubt most businesses would leave lots of ugly graffiti on the side of their bike shed, even though actual business operations were much more important.
Bike shedding refers to being so distracted by unimportant details that important business isn't taken care of. It's possible to give the shed a good coat of paint once in a while while still taking care of more important matters.
but I'm also one of the people who likes borders the way they used to be, with visual indication of where you can click with your mouse and I also use focus-follows-mouse, so I like to light up the border of the active window. So, to me, this isn't bike shedding, it's bike shredding.
