Comment 11 for bug 1054746

-1 from the Docs Team.

Adding a switch to System Settings means that our docs are out of date. These are the docs that I spent most of my weekend working on, since the Design Team really needed to get those dozens of UI Freeze Exceptions done beyond the last possible minute on Thursday, and even Monday (for the new launcher icons). Every one agreed that docs would freeze yesterday at 9 pm UTC. That still gave all day Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday for Canonical to scramble to find a fix for this problem.

This is why we shouldn't approve very late major Feature Freeze Exceptions/User Interface Freeze Exceptions. These features *will* need tweaking.

At some point, we actually do hit a hard User Interface Freeze/Feature Freeze. Considering that those "deadlines" passed a month ago, I believe we've already reached that point.

Also, I don't think we can approve this until it is explicit about what exactly the UI will look like. If that's not agreed upon in advance, then there is a decent chance that people will want to change it again.

From the docs side, you could just add an extra gsettings string. We don't document dconf-editor and while we do have some "gsettings set" instructions on other pages, you could say that arguably using Software Center to remove the lens is better since it's graphical and easier. Or you could remove the shopping feature. It's very easy to remove documentation.

For reference, this is the docs page:
