I think that you should consider if your opinion is the opinion of statistically significant number of users. From what I know, wordpress.com has millions of users and only small percent take part in such discussions. Can it be because most of them like or don't mind changes? Many times I've seen a group of users complaining, but after a rollback of changes I had to deal with another one with opposite views. It eventually leads to all users thinking that you are a jerk. I personally like to ignore such requests, as it keeps the size of unhappy group almost constant and I don't have to do anything I don't like.
