I agree that perhaps a poll isn't the right way to go, but the part does address
a valid problem. While this particular part is a shortcut part, there are other
parts in the library that have bad origin/rotation settings that aren't
shortcuts. Obviously we can't change the existing parts, but perhaps we should
come up with an official naming/meta tag convention for "user-friendly" versions
of existing official parts, and allow these to be submitted for any part.
While you are correct that standards aren't easily achieved through democracy,
that is the type of thing that the LDraw Standards Committee is supposed to take
care of, isn't it? (That's my understanding, at least. Since I'm one of the
new members of the committee, please set me straight if I'm wrong about this.)
