Right, but when people place you as the destructor of SeaMonkey, and
tell you that your only goal is to fight off users of the feature you
just helped to survive at all, then they put it way over the top.
Most people probably don't realize that e.g. without my work on them,
SeaMonkey 2.0 wouldn't have progress windows at all. The old ones didn't
work with the new download manager backend to which we were switching in
any case. Nobody else volunteered to write new progress windows that
work with the new one, so I did, and e.g. not having other icons
available, I just reused the ones we already had in use in the newly
written download manager window.
In any case, those people have driven me away enough that I won't work
on any improvements of the progress windows, even though I had a few
such improvements, including better icons, in work.

See shows how thin skinned you are. I thought I was. The only criticism
I have of the progress window *in the download manager* is they are
exactly half the size they should be. They were just a few comments
about the progress bars but then they died away. And the Criticism was
about the width 1/2 the size they should be.
What we are talking about here, is Forms Management which is something
different.
What's the point in having a support group if there are no complaints.
Without them know one knows anything needs to be improved.
