Not me -- the mixture is the most-used lever on my plane, now that I pay for my own avgas and maintenance. In fact, the Warrior II POH actually recommends using the mixture rather than the throttle to set cruise power for best economy (leaving the throttle wide open), and I've had a lot of success with that -- it has the added bonus of reducing the risk of CO poisoning to virtually nil once the cylinders are all running lean of peak. (For those who are not aware, the rich-of-peak/lean-of-peak debate is the light-aircraft equivalent of the emacs/vi debate, i.e. the closest thing possible to a perpetual-motion machine.) All of that aside, I agree that we should add some hotspots to the panel for people who don't have mixture assigned to anything on their joysticks. We should also add a keyboard shortcut for mixture.
