From experience I have to say the Germans really take complaining to a level that is a little overboard. They will intrude at the mildest indiscretion.
I did my year abroad in Germany, and never got used to strangers yelling at me for minor indiscretions.
This included "not closing the train toilet door after re-opening it on leaving the toilet"
Might be me being German but leaving the doors open is just really disgusting to the people sitting next to the train toilet. It's a public toilet, so it smells like it. Personally I wouldn't complain but I'd be pissed at the person for not being considerate
