how his software should be used,
what should be patched,
what should be improved."
Within any developer's copy of their code, I agree with the second two, but

that is what you meant, I don't think I agree with that. If you meant

Uhh..no. He has the right in his domain. A third-party has his rights as
well, and that's when it's called a "fork" :) So let me simplify:
You don't like it, then take it your way.
We're lucky our devs are friendly. Well, most of them.
