[Suggestion] Configurable OOM management (apps killing)
As announced in the update 10 announcement, Jolla is trying to solve system lagging by introducing an 'out of memory' (OOM) manager that would kick in and suspend apps if the system was running low on memory.
Please, make this configurable.
With Ubuntu Touch recently going the same as Android/iOS and killing apps automatically, there is even more need for a system with real multitasking where the user decides what is running and what is not. I was buying Jolla to use this kind of multitasking and I would be very sad to see it gone/crippled.
As I think: Running too many apps is my problem, not the system's problem.

EDIT: I do know that this kind of management already exists in Linux, it is just a matter of its configuration and I would like to see this configuration exposed to the user.
