Absolutely. You (with your training and ability to manipulate software, test, debug, and deploy) can make the change you like (and maintain it in perpetuity if you can't find someone to take on upstream maintenance).

This is not an option most software users have, but it's probably an option for most readers of this forum.

Yes, but the good thing is that more and more people are learning how to program so I am hopeful that things will get better :)
