What feels slow may turn out to be fast when the time is actually measured
(though the _feeling_ of slowness may still have to be addressed by better
UX design).
Yes, I suspect that most often than not it is that we feel something is
slow because now we don't have so much to do, the system does it for us.
We insert a lot of top-notices (article marks), and
edit them, but how can
we do it fast? Yes we can add top-notices as
templates, but they are
hardly
fast to add that way.
Ideally, this should some day be real metadata and not templates. Using
templates for this is a hack that keeps living long after it should have
died.
And it should be easy and fast to edit this metadata, no matter if the
editor prefers VE or wiki syntax.
This is a far-fetched ideal, but that's a how it should be.
Yes, this should probably be metadata, but right now it is templates and
they are slow to insert.
