Importance = Undecided? How can a regression that causes data loss be "undecided"?! This bug also wastes a lot of time and resources. When it happens your file manager hangs indefinitely and you have to "end the process" not just close the file manager and reopen it. You actually have to open your system monitor, find your file manager, and then end it's process. The file manager is a major part of the desktop. Killing/ending it can cause other instability that may also cost the loss of data if other applications hang leaving you unable to save your work.

I love you guys but wow.

Linux is way beyond the "toy os" phase. it's used everywhere by not only developers but desktop users that are tired of the high cost of ownership with "the other OS".

With Ubuntu and Linux Mint you are up and running right out of the box. That word needs to be spread much more widely and through more than just word-of-mouth.

If my job didn't drive me 24/7 I'd get involved and help with this stuff, which is what I plan to do when I retire. :)
