Arguing that one user's work flow is better than any others is just egoism imoo. OK guys, I am bad egoist - I want to be productive and use comfortable tools, sometimes I create them, and always try to remember about good standard, quality and usability. Also there are some bad egoists around. New vision is not necessary against standard or backward compatibility, because standard is what makes base for further development. I don't think development requires enforcement, but its your socialist style with your nice theories and wise words, because you enforce others to do as you please with no alternative for them (while this alternative is possible). I just wanted to ask for old menu back, or anything that could be similar to this menu - its not about changing your vision, but accepting feedback from users that enjoyed this feature. Don't you think such vision would be much more fulfilled when at low cost both sides are happy? None of this is going to happen. We waste more time and energy on talking than simply fixing this issue. The patch is created for 2.6, I am switching back to 2.4 then. You can be proud of your bright new vision and forcing everyone to use it, because you know better than user. You are right, I can still use version 2.4 or patch the sources of 2.6, but like I said - its not Open Source anymore, only the source code is available, because you are not open to feedback and user ideas, even when patch is ready. Maybe someone come soon and enforce his own vision irreversibly destroying your work, then you will understand what I was talking about.
