Peripherally related to this is the issue that some people can't make up their mind on what they want, and then some things have the user community divided. The "ignore" option is like that, also the vertical bars and left v. right menus... oh tons of stuff. Unless there is a consistent voice about some technical direction, you can't do much of anything. Options for every little thing that people can turn off and on are problems technically, you never want to do that. You wind up with a whole bunch of branches on your tree when it comes to upgrades etc, not maintainable I don't think its too much to ask for a consistent request from the user community and if they can't
come together, what can you do?

I disagree completely with the idea that we have to come together to make meaningful change. The ability for each SI member to configure SI more to their liking would be a great thing, and it isn't too hard to maintain. A little harder, yes, but not that much. And compared to the benefits, it's a nit.
