--- Comment #4 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> ---
I don't object to instructions for locating things on the Tabbed UI to be part
of the help pages; but - certainly not as the default. Please see the (long)
discussion in bug 135501 about that.

Also, recalling that the Tabbed UI has numerous outstanding issues, it does not
make sense to promote its use more than the use of, say, toolbars.

So, the order of items IMO should be:

* menus
* toolbars
* tabbed UI
* keyboard shortcut

or 


* menus
* toolbars
* keyboard shortcut
* tabbed UI

Also,

But it is a second-class UI, in two senses: It is inferior usability-wise, even
when fully implemented; and it is currently not fully/properly implemented
relative to the menus and toolbars. (Like how it is completely unusable for RTL
language speakers who need Calc.)

This I agree with.

The ideal situation is when tabbed UI is relegated to an extension and removed
from the main codebase. It's only because of MSO's poor UI choice that
supporting it to this level has any legitimacy, as far as I am concerned.
