I TOTALLY agree. Instead of complaining why don't they help to improve the
viewers functionality!

I strongly disagree with you there. True its not scientific but I know 
of more than a few people personally who couldn't navigate with the old 
UI and gave up. They recently tried again with viewer 2 and are 
functional and happy.

Viewer 2 isn't perfect.  There's lots of room for refinement and this 
community has a lot of good ideas about what needs to be done.  But the 
whole Viewer 2 "the sky is falling" rhetoric from some is really counter 
productive.
