Give Kubuntu a brand orange and brown Ubuntu colors.  
Written by WallFuze the 18 Oct 09 at 10:51. New
Ubuntu colors are orange and brown, and GNOME desktop envinroment in this OS designed exactly in that colors, but why Kubuntu's colors are blue and black? Why it have default KDE appereance, which are used in many other Linux distributions?

P.S.: Sorry for my worse English, i'm from Russia.

Solution #1: Design Kubuntu's KDE in brand orange color.

KDE in openSUSE is green, in Gentoo - purple, so why Kubuntu's KDE is not orange? I offer a new Kubuntu design.

Solution #2: Change "Kubuntu & Xubuntu" to "Ubuntu KDE and Ubuntu XFCE"
Written by WallFuze the 23 Oct 09 at 14:45.
Ubuntu must be one intact distribution, and many-many editions of it like Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu etc only confusing users. Canonnical should merge all this editions into one - Ubuntu. But this is only my IMHO. Maybe other peoples don't guess so.

PageDown/PageUp quantitive effect uncomfortably varying  
Written by stelt the 19 Oct 09 at 06:52. New
How much my page scrolls when pressing PageDown/PageUp varies, based on the content and what program I'm using to work with it. Basically when i press PageDown it should scroll exactly one page down, right? But it doesn't. Even in the middle of a very long document, it usually scrolls a little less than a page. I assume that's because it's assumed to be more reader-friendly when there's a little overlap between the before and after situations.
Near the start/end of documents the thing gets more annoying. When i press pageDown when there's not a whole page left to scroll down to, the jump forces me to visually scan the page and search for the spot i stopped reading before hitting the key

Solution #1: Shortly show borders of pre-scroll page on post-scroll page
Written by stelt the 19 Oct 09 at 06:52.
For example:
Say you hit PageDown, and the content only scrolls half a page as there is no more content to scroll more, then half way your screen there's a quickly fading horizontal line to show you were to continue reading.
People mostly read top-down, but the equivalent for PageUp seems almost just as useful, especially for comments and other message threads.
