Re: [Rails-devel] OK, Poking around a bit more

[Erik V. <eri...@hc...>]

Good suggestions. 

However, unless any of these ideas turns out to be easy to implement,
chances are that I will not get that very soon. In fiddling with the UI I
tend to be satisfied if things work (rather than look perfect). My focus is
on other aspects.

It might be a good idea to put such ideas in the bugs or feature requests
lists.

Erik.
