That's fantastic to hear, and thank you for clarifying. I thought it
might be a separate tree or something, but for express mode to
incorporated into the same tree, and triggered with a special switch, is
definitely preferable.

I know what you mean. There were a number of nice touches in the
screenshots, but the tabs in the appointment editor were my personal
favourite, and seem like something that's a clear win in non-express
mode too.
