But it also indicates an ad hoc approach to solving UI/UX problems, rather than having someone particularly skilled with UI/UX vetting the entire design from the outset. What I hope is that the infrastructure changes under the hood make it relatively easy for the whole GUI portion to be completely reconsidered for F19. That was not possible with oldui, it had too many under the hood issues to make significant functional changes.
