Unfortunately this is a full speed rolling trainwreck already. The
whole app space is made to encourage shitty applications. Android is
designed exactly in that way and it seems that all other desktop folks
have fully adopted that adsurdity.
Back when NOHZ was merged in the kernel, powertop made people fix crap
left and right in not time. Why should we add something which actively
fosters crappy applications today?
Thanks,
