 New Comment:

I am marking this as won't fix but we may consider this for the next redesign. 
We've been focusing on incremental improvements for the last several months and 
will continue to do so for the next few.

Description:
------------
Redesign of website puts a trendy but marginally useful floating navigation 
banner on all pages.  This wastes valuable vertical screen space, especially on 
recent monitors designed with programmer-unfriendly aspect ratios.  It's no 
loss if this kind of navigation scrolls off the page--especially in a site that 
caters to a technical audience!  If you *really* feel the need to slip this in 
somehow, please put it into one of the side margins where you already have 
whitespace.  After all, the redesign already gilds the lily by putting an arrow 
in the lower-right-hand corner to scroll to the top of the page.

I do like the fonts, though.

Note: I did not post this on the phpdotnet.uservoice.com because it appears to 
have awfully weak privacy for commenters: while the TOS and the privacy policy 
indicate there is a way for "Account Holders" to opt out of having details 
spread around, the casual commenter is not an account holder.  The only 
"protection" available is to use the single-sign-on service of Facebook or 
Google Plus, and that ultimately is even worse for my privacy than writing my 
email address in the forums.
