Yes. Start with the general agreements and often reported Bugs & requested
features. Passive display widgets generally aren't _so_ much of an issue as
controllers. It's a very hard thing to argue in the abstract. Until you've
tried using something and found it irksome, it's not really an issue, from a
user perspective. Obviously it's worth trying to think ahead, but it's also
worth avoiding ko-fights over imaginary behaviours.
It is rewarding to know these issues are being taken seriously tho'
