There is a movement to permit kitniyos on Pesach in our day and age as do the Sfardim. People are passionate about this. They don't think the minhag makes sense. Plus - they really enjoy eating rice.
OK - I am waiting for a movement that Ashkenazim should start saying Slichos from Rosh Chodesh Elul as do the Sfardim. Like - does it make sense to wait so long to start Slichos?? Do Sfardim have more aveiros than Ashkenazim requiring more Slichos?? Like - I don't think so....
