yes yes yes!
Option or extra dimensions or whatever, wonderful.

It is already something great but it seems to be obscured behind clouds.
Although I have had to cease offering it, and at present have begun
moving away, personally from it to gnome - as a defensive preparation
- I can clearly see and appreciate that it is a wonderful piece of
work and I am distraught that such creativity is causing me such concerns.
I hope against hope that the team can find a way of prospering along
paths for both the slower plodders like me and those I help who like a
rich (easy) environment with functionality, and those who crave and
relish much more bazazz! (As I myself also do occasionally....)
