- remove humanity-icon-theme and ubuntu-mono
- mintwelcome icon
- grey-on-grey icons (many in cinnamon-settings)
- mint-y-icons: yellow and teal folders missing.
- cinnamon: The progress indicator in the panel should be the same color as the chosen theme. Not just green.
- cinnamon themes hardcode the font
cinnamon:
- removing favorites isn't intuitive, there should be a context menu option
- Application switcher items are not properly selected https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/7623
- NFS mount not visible in Nemo left menu. How to reproduce: install nfs-common, mount NFS folder.
- Even after authorize Samba in gufw, Nemo doesn’t show the local network and machine on it. I must manually type smb://user@ip to get in (after workgroup and password) In Mint 18 that was directly available.
- If the screen is rotated, then the touch screen digitiser and trackpad both move the cursor in a direction mirrored to what is expected ie move your finger to the left on the screen and the cursor moves to the right. This works properly in Gnome.

menu keywords: looking for display in menu shows color first
preferences > keyboard > custom shortcuts. Used with a Spanish keyboard layout. Recorded: crtl+number and ctrl+Shift+number (e.g. ctrl+1 and ctrl+shift+1 = ctrl+!) they are recorded correctly. When using the shortcut the command defined in the shift combination is triggered with just ctrl+number (i.e. ctrl+1). The complete combination triggers nothing (i.e. ctrl+shift+1 does nothing) and the comand defined in ctrl+number can never be used. This worked in 17.3.
