I'm unsure about the "Avoid proprietary tools" section. Say if someone
uses one of the
proprietary (but free to use) IDEs from JetBrains, are we here just
encouraging this
person to try open source alternatives, or are we really asking the
contributor to do
so (like in "Check the licenses" or "Be patient")?

Or maybe it only applies if the contribution would introduce
proprietary tools in the
build process or future development work? E.g., when the contribution
contains an art
whose source format need a proprietary tool to edit.
