Driving Principles
I asked for features that are not hidden. Ill never need a users manual again. Make it easier to find the information Im looking for. Finding information has never been more powerful. I want a more modern user interface. Now I have a modern and intuitive UI.

I need to be able to start working where I left off. I can start without remembering every detail.

Its too hard to create and edit displays. Display creation is fast and easy.
