Ken,
I just responded to your other email, so this is short. ;-)
It's ok that you don't fully agree, I know I am in a minority here.
You see I build "Graphical" User Interfaces and most here build
application interfaces. Most are happy to have a nice looking field
to enter database queries in and a simple button that looks like it
belongs in the interface, that is as far as their graphic interests
go. Not mine though.
I would rather see a bigger palette then that tiny one at the bottom
of the tools palette. And I didn't really think they were ashamed of
it but rather they didn't see it as too important, like most on the
list don't, is all. ;-)
I for one would love to see greater and greater graphics capabilities
in Rev. (Think Widgets) - ;-) grin........
Thanks for the response,
Tom

When building application interfaces, it is more likely you'll need
buttons,
fields, scrollbars, tab buttons, etc. than you'll need graphic
rectangles,
polygons and paint tools. So the choice to "hide" them is more for
screen
real-estate issues than that they are in some way ashamed of them.
And making the MC paint tools a plugin means that a person won't
automatically see it without them having to take the trouble to
install the
plugin, and set the stack to automatically open. Might be easier to
just
tell the Tools palette to automatically open expanded through a
plugin...
Just my 2 cents,
Ken Ray
