We all do. But I am leaning seriously towards F11.

It is just a bit moreannoying to the developers working on the XS
itself. For end users, an F11-based XS will have security support into
the future, plus some bugfixes. In itself, it doesn't get us any
compelling improvements.

Fire-and-motion as they say.*

For developers, it does have some good things that are worthwhile. But
developers, we're here to suffer and serve :-)
