Leinir's idea sounds OK. Perhaps the person responsible for the UX design will even agree that it's OK. But even if the best placed person in the technical UX project agreed, the chances that it could be changed at this point, when we find out about it, are slim. The costs now would be much higher than if the change were proposed & made several months ago. But because the UX interfaces are being developed and specced behind closed doors, and we discover finished code which we are expected to "patch" (as opposed to "write"), everyone ends up frustrated. Now I'm not even attaching a whole lot of importance to this particular thing. But it is evidence, if anyone were looking for some, for the inherent difficulties in developing open source software as a private project.
