for 0.8 we are considering to remove two feature currently available in
0.7. We are very interested how you feel about this.
1. No longer support switching locales/languages of the application at
runtime.
2. No longer support changing the theme at runtime
I know both features are cool but do we really NEED it. Does anyone
depend on one of the mentioned features or plans to use them? We really
like to know how you feel about this.
Supporting runtime switching these is awsome from the "coolness" point of view. Helps popping those "wow" in demos, I believe! ;-)
On the other hand, considering implementation is costly and currently experiencing some issues (such as issue 764 [1]), IMHO I'd agree with you and remove them in order to enhance performance and decrease memory usage.
