One reason I can think of right away is cost to development resources on something that is really only eye candy...





IMHO - simplification, and reducing the number of clicks to perform sophisticated tasks and use case scenarios is much more than eye candy; productivity gains and ease of use help existing customers too




I totally agree with you, Joe. For example, simply reorganizing / regrouping the actual menus in a more logical way (using submenus, for example) or (even better) allowing custom organization of menus, would greatly improve the actual GUI, the workflow and the productivity for many users, and probably wouldn't imply too much development resources. There are many other excellent ideas about possible GUI improvements on a recent thread started by Peter Gannon.
