Hi,

I agree, but to be honest, this won't change before releasing 1.9.0... 0:)

I have experienced some strange behavior with record view: I don't
have any specific clickpath, but I got the impression some times it
get stuck.

This makes sense. We should move into a logic where values get
calculated on the fly depending of data introduced instead of waiting
for user clicking "calculate" buttons.

Ooops! I have just added this comment to ticket #71 (sorry, I wasn't
aware of it!)

This matches with "smarter" approach described above.

This points directly to #72. Actually file import should be removed
from "new entry" dialog as it should be done via "unified import"
(File -> Import). This didn't happen yet because unified import
(tickets #3, #8, #41) misses some functionality.
