No….  but what I have learned is that any change, even to the good, will be 
very hard
to do because people are very much defined by habits. So do not expect the 
existing users to be 
happy… it’s sad but it is like that.

The way to make progress is (to somme extend) listen to these complaints and 
then to just ignore them ;-)
(Else Pharo browsers would be eye-cancer inducing green… and there are I am 
sure still people who
would argue that this was better with green windows ;-)
