Heh. I'm finally reading this very interesting thread. Thanks all. This question made me chuckle:

In my day to day life these days I'm supposed to define requirements. When defining them, I'm often faced by a question from The Most Boring Man in the Universe:

"Who asked for this."

Well, no one asked for it. Sometimes the right thing to do doesn't get asked for. Sometimes people are so ingrained in behaviours they don't ask for things because they don't know to ask for it, or they don't know the system is capable of doing.

I basically consider just about everything Paola and Jonathan say an "expert opinion" when the topic is usability. You can quote me on that :)
