Hi Paulo,

glad you like it! As for your comments, they are certainly valid and we definitely need people's feedback. Could you please create issues on github to keep track of them, that's the most convenient way for us.

Done, I split them up in three separate suggestions, see issues #927, #928 and #929

    Dear devs,

    I just compiled the grass gis master, which now opens directly,
    with the data tab. As a (fairly) long time user of grass gis, it
    took me a few seconds to get used to the idea ;-), but I am loving
    it!

    Apart from the start up, I really like the more prominent place
    and functionality of the data tab. I was already using it a lot,
    but e.g., the icons really provide a neat extra touch. And for new
    users a nice visual representation of the database structure. I

    One small remark about the options to add an existing or create a
    new database. I am not sure this is completely intuitive.
    Initially I thought the button 'Add new grass database' button
    would be to create a new database, and I was looking where to open
    an existing one. I found out quick enough that one can use the
    button to add an existing database as well, but perhaps wording
    the tooltip slightly different makes it more apparent (e.g., ' Add
    existing or create new database' ).

    When creating a new location, there is the option to change the
    database in which to create the location. This requires one to
    select the grass database folder. I wonder if it wouldn't be more
    intuitive and easier (from a user point of view) if the user can
    simply select the database from a list of 'connected' databases?
    Why would I want to create a location in a database that is not in
    the list? And if it is in the list, having to browse to the
    database folder feels like, well, something I would rather not
    (being lazy and all).

    Anyway, some feedback on some great improvements!

    Cheers,

    Paulo
