Please re-read my original submission, above. Briefly, it states:

1/ The pop-up panel blocks the bottom Xubuntu Desktop panel and renders any icons, launcher buttons, etc, there inaccessible.

2/ The pop-up panel cannot be dismissed so long as xfce4-display-settings is a running process. In fact, it can neither be closed nor dragged away.

3/ The pop-up panel violates the global desktop preferences settings for notifications on the Xubuntu Desktop that have been set in Applications Menu > Settings Manager > Notifications.

I then make a suggestion for a work-around as a temporary fix until these issues have been satisfactorily addressed.

Specifically as to your action to change the status of this submission from Confirmed → Opinion:

These three issues listed in my original submission are thouroughly tested facts, not opinion.

And these are facts, moreover, which, as explained, unnecessarily impair the usability of Xubuntu 13.10 and, as such, they are regressive relative to Xubuntu 13.04.

In addition, specifically as to item 3/, the factual behaviour, as described, also breaks consistency across Desktop configurability and behaviour.

Equally, furthermore, a suggested temporary work-around is not an opinion either.

Only my praise for the otherwise improved Display Settings dialog is an opinion, albeit one which is entirely besides the point.

In short, and with all due and truly deserved respect, your action in this case to downgrade my submission as a mere opinion rests on an elementary misinterpretation and is not constructive. It leaves Xubuntu worse off.
