I'd leave it to Peter Sikking and his team of experts, by and large, but
for my own part I'm with Alan Cooper in "About Face" - design _first_
for the "perpetual intermediate", not the absolute beginner and also not
the person who uses the application for hours a day every day.

The "perpetual intermediate" is unlikely to use enough of the program to
grasp the logic behind placement of commands, especially when a command
could reasonably go in more than one place.

I know there are times I use the plugin browser myself, but then, there
are whole days when I forget to wear shoes and socks :-) I don't want to
expect perfection in others, either...

best,

Liam
