	To ask a more general question, will the numerics that fall
into the realm of "user preference" be setable through some sort of
"Preferences" in the future. Each user has their own tastes, as we can
see even from the small number of postings, and it is in everyone's
interest to please the wide audience to increase the popularity of the
X Window System.

	If these, and other "standard" items (bell volume, key click,
mouse sensitivity, double-click duration, etc..) are brought out to
the programmatic level all users will eventually be sated. If these
are constants that one effectivily has to rebuild the server to change
people will still say that the Mac or the Amiga are better systems....
