People are missing this package,we can sort out of the description later.
Jan, stop this... there is no reason to change the current description.
@jengelh: Would something like [0] be acceptable ?
I would also say that the description seemed overly negative. If users do not care about resource use and mainly want a nice looking shell, that is also getting a lot of attention I do not think openSUSE should not carry it.
If that does not work could you be specific what you take issue with in the current description ?

The issue? It's misleading. It's deceptive. It's dishonest. And outright wrong.
This program is not "minimal": It tracks processes. Most other commonplace terminals don't do that. The program is not "user-friendly": there's at least one thing that gets in the way of some users. Besides, computers don't "befriend" users, so let's cut such empty marketing phrasing.
The new description is not specifically negative. It just states facts. Do you deny that the palette colors are unchangable? Do you deny that g-c has desktop notifications? Other users would be stoked to have desktop notifications and a cursor that stops blinking eventually (xterm doesn't do either of those two). There isn't even a recommendation or recommendation against.
Whether you want to use the program is a determination you alone make for yourself. A good description helps make that determination before installing the package, and helps set the expectations. Your [0] rq does not address that at all.
The description I proposed does not talk about minimal or user-friendly any more. I assumed that some of the language used was the issue. I was hoping that it could be seen as a middle ground.
I think the issues that you describe in the second paragraph is why it is described as 'minimal'. There is a minimal feature set and you get the terminal as it is, without the option to change a lot. Either you like what you get or you do not, and then you can still remove it.
