I don't view that as a fundamental problem, unless the interface is horrid
which is something I strive hard to make sure I don't produce.

As for email clients, I've used worse.

Destructive? Bit harsh. This is ment as a constuctive endevour to bring
MORE people into the discussion. I'm acutally really surprised how hard
