The problems identified in this thread are glaringly obvious examples poor usability and there is really no reason not to make some improvements in these areas. While these improvements might not result in the perfect solution, that doesn't matter. As long as they make Drupal easier to use and don't break the API they are worth while.
Right on. At this point in time, we should focus on improvements for 4.7, not on those for 4.8. Everything that is meant to be for 4.8 should be put aside. Remember that Drupal 4.7 will be the de facto release for the next 6-9 months. That is a _long_ time and thus a _lot_ of new users (and potential customers) that will be exposed to Drupal 4.7. It is in everybody's interest to improve Drupal 4.7's usability in the few weeks that we've left. -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
