Why, oh why should every program try to win the Design awards or follow every M$ "invention" ?
Really, the most important thing is the functionality.
Mostly, the less "Design", the more "Functionality", often described as "Complex", but appreciated by many.
Mostly, the less "Wizards", the more "Flexibility", often described as "Complex", but appreciated by many.
Some example
- the Vuze/Azureus Torrent-program which also had in the past a "Design-Upgrade", but the die-hards still continue to use the "old technical" Azureus-UI.
- Music Label. Every time M$ decides to change the UI in Windows or Office, Music Label is reworked to align to it. Stupid, especially because other more important functionality never gets implemented despite many users requesting it.
- Foxit reader leaves the option to choose for the "standard" UI
So, please Steven, don't break MB, and leave the option open for the user to choose for the "old i.e. actual technical for some complex" UI.
Thanks for the great MB
