No it is not sufficient. Once you add an application, it appears on the
list at the bottom part of the page. Add application should be a wizard.

Step 1: Define application name
Step 2: Select tier - this page needs to contain briefly what each tier
provides, features/limitations etc.
Step 3: Add APIs to Application
Step 4: Generate keys

The user experience should be smooth & unbroken. This is not just a problem
with API-M UIs, but may of our other UIs as well. We need to make an effort
to improve these aspects, and such small improvements will go a long way.
