I think it's a matter of quality... and the 2.10 release didn't make it
for me. I can live with "quirks" in a beta but not with a public
release.

The beta cycle seemed hardly finished before RC1 and production
release(s) came out. My list (mostly) highlights some rough edges that
could be resolved quickly and should be picked up before public release.
I just wonder if there's an aggressive release schedule that means some
corners are cut; e.g. pushing out 2.10 when there were still outstanding
bugs with the new features? I fear these quirks, as you put it, will
start accumulating and get missed if they're not dealt with sooner
rather than later.

If you click on the preview pane the cursor jumps to the top of the
message. Consequently, you cannot copy or use a hyper-link without
placing the cursor in the preview pane first. This was pointed out
during beta testing.

I sincerely hope so.
