I happen to agree with Adrian here. The definition of 'grave' is really not
as important as our own judgement of something being or not a release
critical problem.

The question is really 'do we want to tell our users to restart GNOME after
upgrading?' Though while upgrading from woody to sarge this is probably
going to be a need, since woody still has GNOME1.4.

So maybe this is not release critical for this upgrade, anyway. We'll have
to make some tests of a GNOME1.4 -> GNOME2.6 upgrade with GNOME1.4 still
running.

Thanks,
