Well, you said that much more diplomatically than I would have.  I
reported a web UI bug back in the 6.5 beta that made it unusable for
me.  The fix got pushed back to 6.5.1, then to 7.0.  I've tried out
every skin extensively on a laptop with a small display.  Most of the
skins have a problem on a small laptop when you enlarge the font in the
browser to make the text easily readable.  The controls in some of the
skins don't resize with the text, making the text they contain
unreadable.  Other times, fixed-size UI elements partly cover up the
controls when the text is enlarged.  The least buggy skin I've found so
far is Fishbone, but even it has a UI panel that partly covers up the
main combo box used for navigation after enlarging the fonts.  This is
all stuff that can easily be found with even the most casual testing.

And this refers to 6.3.1.  From what I've seen, 6.5 is even buggier
still.  UI elements that used to behave well by virtue of being in an
HTML table now show overlapping text in the dark skin when resizing the
browser window.  I could go on, but after having wasted time in bug
reporting when the fixes get pushed back to an unacceptable point in
the future, I've had it.
