Guilty as charged.

The parts I like are the parts that work, and I think I was lucky enough not to encounter so many bugs as you did. Furthermore the hackability may be not great, but I'd venture it's still superior to the alternatives where I'd presumably need to spin up a build env for KDE or Gnome and deploy a whole new release.
