There is 1 second delay after starting the GUI before the docs directory path 
is checked. The print comes after that to confirm the current path at start.

Fixed.

I'm not seeing that behavior, unless you mean under the audio or midi dialogs 
which are always on top of other windows when open.

If someone wants to work on that, maybe. Probably not me any time soon after 
this release. I have some ideas, but I *really* have to get work on other 
things after this release.

I can change the naming of Libraries to Externals, but I am not changing the 
listing behavior for now. Especially after spending time just putting it back 
together after the user search path stuff was removed previously.

Browser updates won't appear in the docs path test builds as that work is in 
another branch.

That's because I limited the max # of cols to 3 because there is no horizontal 
scroll bar aka if you keep opening new columns, you can scroll back unless you 
click back or use the keyboard. We can bump the max to 4 if you want. I didn't 
feel like spending another *1-2 whole days* on adding & testing browser horz 
scrolling...
