I don't think anybody disagrees with you. No one in this thread has said
that they don't want to see
a new management UI. And I do believe that even the devteam agrees with
this. That suggests that
if someone puts something together there is a high chance that it could be
included in Qubes
proper.

I have said that I would like to do the work, but there are factors that
make it impossible for
me to invest any time into it at this time. The surely must be others who
are willing to put
in the time to do it?

There are certainly enough people complaining about it that there should be
at least some
people able to scratch that itch.

If you're not capable of doing the work, I understand it can be frustrating
to see no progress being
done on aspects of the system that you feel is important, but do keep in
mind that the devteam
are resource-constrained and they have to follow their own priorities.
