The beautiful thing about open source is that you always have that choice.
Sure, you may not like the amount of effort that may be involved (on a
scale that goes from switching your local desktop, all the way up to forking
your own copy of GNOME 2.30 and taking it in whatever direction you feel
like), but it doesn't mean you don't have that choice.
