BTW, the dialogs that you consider to be "unnecessary" can already be
skipped using the Shift key. Sure, perhaps not the most intuitive and
discoverable approach, but it works well for our power users. And
sometimes the dialogs are not that unnecessary at all. So we can't just
remove them. At least not all of them.

Some UI streamlining is definitely needed, but the solutions aren't
necessarily as simple as you put them. Actually a lot of what you say in
your blog entry is well-known and there are bug reports for it already:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85579
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109929
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121087

These things are on our TODO for quite a while now. The problem is that
they are very difficult to implement.
