Seriously, Ralph would be appalled at either of us whining about how the old way or the new way is "too hard". In fact, neither one is really that difficult. But neither is the ideal solution, or even an ideal compromise. I've read somewhere on these forums (so it must be true) that many of the developers aren't happy with the current sync UI, so I expect there are more changes coming our way. But I'd be surprised if they looked exactly like anything we've seen before.
