I don't really think so, no. But Thanks for the feedback, and as I said earlier, I am investigating/thinking about improvements. I have a feeling most complaints here are more about its look and not really usability, but perhaps we could make things clearer without making it *so* minimal.

(Just as a note, the passive aggressiveness is not helpful especially when you're targeting volunteer developers such as myself. I did cause the grain, but also fixed it, as well as over 100 other bugs for 31.)

Blake, sorry to do this to you, but what thoughts do you have on the compose ui for all platforms, Linux in particular. Any improvement ideas?
