Not sure how much good a petition would do. As to dialogs, I really wish they would make a better, keysoft menu-like interface for that sort of dialog. Right now, it seems like someone threw a quick ks wrapper over the cpp generating the dialog, or just grabbed the dialog output and forced it into ks-friendly data structs. I think the whole thing should be made to feel like a part of keysoft, getting rid of the using space to get to inputs and buttons and all that. Fill in the data and then exit; say yes or no to the resulting prompt to submit data. Anyway, I guess me going on about this is not going to help fix it; SDK!!
