I'm not fine with that at all. It's a disrespectful idea.
It says there are two great classes. Developers and users. Which is such
a false dichotomy it hard to start at any one place.
A user that gives me $10k to develop inkscape features is not just a
user.
A user that contributes user experience testing is not just a user.
A user who contributes bug reporting or triage is not just user.
A user who argues respectively for certain workflows is not just a user.
Basically as soon as a user open her mouth, she is no longer a user. She
is a contributor. And should be respected as such. Asking contributors
to shut up as policy is rejecting contribution as bad as rejecting code
because I didn't write it.
