The most intelllingent quote I've read in the Comments page is:
"As the quote in the [WWW] GNOME Usability says: What's important is not that
we can conceive the idea, but that when we actually test it on people you
discover it doesn't work... your intuition is wrong."
So please, before a so huge change, I'd test it on a wide range of users.
Cheers,
Koke
