As a developer, I disagree.  Even stupid questions and comments can
tell us where we need to address usability.  The big benefit of having
a big "consumer" user base is that more people means more potential
developers, and/or more financial support for our developers.  That
means more work *on* geda, which means better tools for all of us.

The trick, however, is figuring out how to turn those complainers into
*constructive* complainers.
