you just convinced me that I have to throw away caffeine.
I am working in a company that has strict rules on screensaves. That means: if I walk to lunch and the screen saver doesnt pop up; that could mean big trouble. On the other hand; I like to switch Adobe Reader or browsers to full screen; just because then reading big documents is easier for me.
Now I have to remember I have to turn off full screen every time I leave my system; because the now useless caffeine would prevent the screen saver to kick in.
And in contrast to that; I am very often sharing my screen for code reviews - then I used caffeine to prevent the screensaver.
Now I would have to remember to put some application in full screen (afaik my eclipse that I am sharing doesnt have a full screen mode).
Long story short: yes, this is open source, and I am just a user; and you are the person spending your time on it. But you just lost a good portion of your user base. And in my eyes: for absolutely no reason.
Maybe the most important question is now: where could one find a .deb of the older version that came without this "feature"?!
Because those are the choices left for me:
a) throw out caffeine
b) install an older version and pin that
