I'm not talking about user experience of a released program. There's
no question that its not possible to control this.

I'm talking about the user experience of a not-yet alpha-released
program. There's probably no question that its possible to control
this either, but the fact that its possible for the concept to even
exist is a function of the fact that we've developed ardour3 "in the
open" rather than keeping it hidden until we think its ready for
public evaluation.
