Hello, I wanted to ask in what aspect were the concerns actually discussed. I don't see any real discussion on the page provided, and it almost seems to me this space was provided just to ~ silence ~ any protests...reminds me of the process in some democratic countries, where everybody can say everything, but it has no influence on what will actually happen. I mean, the serious issue is really that these tabs might not be the best choice from the beginning. My personal experience so far - they are better than nothing, but they are not fast to use, hard readable, taking extra space. I think there are definitely better ways to handle UI clutter. Maybe something less fancy but more usable in work process. Although this mail might seem a bit angry(and yes, it is.), I still want to say thank you for your work. I understand you see it as the best thing which can be done and I appreciate every effort in improving the UI.
I would really love if the Blender foundation would as a deciding element be able to step in, and would invest some money and time into designing things in the UI. Then it could define some guidelines which would be based on real usability research, and these would be obligatory for developers. I know this is not such a totally free model, but my opinion is it would in long term lead to better software. Now we have an experiment(one of possibly many better/worse solutions), which will be in a release in a short time, and will become a standard for a long time again.
