--- Comment #10 from Brent Laabs <bsla...@gmail.com> ---
I have to admit that I didn't like MediaViewer at first, but I read Erik's
comments, and decided to give it another try.  And it's definitely improving. 
It's now at the quality level of an early beta release, rather than the alpha
release level it was at when it was first implemented.

The fullscreen button was surprising at first, but I can see the use of it. 
But after that, it only took me 2 minutes to find two bugs. MV tells users that
they have to attribute CC0 and PD images (they don't).  I wanted to see the
message that was in the public domain attribution message, so I clicked in the
message field, and pressed the right arrow to see the end of the selection --
oops!  Next image.

I'm not a person with highly established workflows -- my contributions to
English Wikipedia are around one edit per month, and I use other wiki software.
 Media Viewer is just confusing, and feels incomplete.  It's not my workflow
breaking, it's a new feature's interface being confusing.

I'm really disappointed that the WMF seems to want to force this on the
community, when it's so clearly a product still in need of development.  And
I'm more disappointed that the only response to the community has been based on
Silent Majority arguments and a disdain for experienced members of the
community.

If this bug is marked WONTFIX, where can I file a bug about the WMF?
