Not really sure what you're trying to say here, but the N900 is my first ever smartphone, and as long as it serves me well, it will be my only one. So I can't speak from experience with the other platforms. Just because they don't do it, doesn't make it the way it should be.
Both Windows and Mac OS X do pretty decent customization, actually. As for Linux; I guess it depends on your desktop environment and graphical toolkit. To be fair, Xubuntu doesn't do a great job at it.

Yes, that's why on top of researching it, I'm posting a request in a thread that no developer that's putting serious time into the CSSU might even look into. But yeah, shame on me for coming up with an appealing idea for the next CSSU as opposed to bashing on the ideas of others.

And if five thousand people change it but twice a year, count out the minutes saved.
