you can't. its' released. something you always wanted and pushed for so heavily.
now you pay the price. i suspect you don't understand the concept of stable
and release, something i tried to impress on you several times when you were
pushing me to do a release (when i made eet 1.0 and now we have to maintain the
old eet disk format and the current one as a result for as long as we don't go
2.0 and 2.0 means breaking support and that drives people away, so we won't be
breaking things for a long while to come - at least until about 2016).

terminology has its ui like it is because i WANT it that way. not because i am
avoiding some widget. i literally want that because i want a specific look and
behavior. it isn't all totally polished yet and finished, but you may have
noticed it has evolved from a single options pane now to 2 that slide in
(controls then options), and i will be adding a 3rd one too.

let me ask a question. do u think chromium's ui is crap and should use popup
menus for all it settings? because terminology's setup is not that different
to what it does.

and come on people. terminology is not even 1 month old! it's 1 month birthday
is next thursday! how many apps have accomplished as many features and
usability in that time. also consider it a playground for me to test new ideas
BEFORE they become some widget we are stuck having to maintain and support!
