Hmm, it all seems like a text book "rant"--rather petulant. And I'm not sure "serious Impress users" have any more weight than "serious Calc users" or "serious Writer users". None the less, the developer who implemented the code got to decide based on input in IRC, design meetings, gerrit feedback, and related issues filed in BZ (see tdf#87672 <https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87672> for example). In this case, available in master and in time for the 5.1.0beta1, the Impress Mode tab bar was toggled inactive by default because we've added a new "Display Mode" split button widget and an optional "Mode Tab Bar" button widget to the standard toolbar. There was simply no longer a need for the Mode tab bar to be on by default. With the refactoring, we now had a way to turn it off, and did so--users are welcome to turn it back on (from the View menu or by adding the toggle button to their Standard toolbar) if they choose. >From your apparent shock that something changed, should we assume that you had not taken a recent build of master nor one of the 5.1.0 beta releases out for a test? And only now got around to seeing what is new?
