You're quite right. FWIW, it wasn't intended to be a long rant - I
started out writing a point-by-point review of a few usability issues -
though it certainly turned into a long rant as I started seeing more and
more issues.
It's my intention to break that down into specific problem areas and
points, I just thought it was worth getting a few initial impressions too.
