Activity co-op

Developers -- When you use an activity and there's something you don't like... what do you do?

1. Ignore it
2. Tell the activity's dev about it
3. File a proper bug report for it
4. Fix it locally
5. Make a patch for it
6. git push

The activity co-op is for developers who, when they find something they don't like about their own system, want to immediately fix and upstream their changes.
