I find the fact that Softimage often makes me doubt my own sanity by saying that the scene I'm about to close has never been saved, even though I saved it just two clicks earlier.

Also having just launched Softimage, and gone to the file menu to open a scene, I find it very annoying to have to confirm that I don't want to save the completely empty scene the I'm presented with at start up. This is especially annoying when you are trying to open a scene file that you know will take a good few minutes to open. So you head off to make a nice cuppa only to return and find that the software hasn't even started opening the scene file yet as you still haven't confirmed that you don't want to save an empty scene. Grrrr!

Would be nice if renaming was possible.
A list of available harddrives is missing. Could be a dropdown menu, or a separate, always visible part of the folder tree (the shortcuts button is more like a workaround for this).

This same behavior with modal windows happens in win7 as well and can be very frustrating.

    In Linux modal XSI windows aren't quite modal... You can
    accidentally click behind them and lose focus, wondering why XSI
    is unresponsive, only to realise in the taskbar there's a window
    you have to OK to.

    And like Xavier said, Copy/paste in Linux.... ARGHH! Rarely works
    and when it does it's like two seconds after I trigger a paste.
    Behavior varies between softwares, too. "gedit" pastes very
    quickly but pretty much every other program (like Firefox or
    SublimeText2) doesn't paste instantly or reliably when having
    copied from SI.

        A very simple thing I find annoying.  In the file menu,
        there's a import model, and export model but no replace model.

        Also when UI windows like the material editor and explorer
        are opened and set where I want them I wish SI would remember
        their preferred location for next time.
