3) I see there
are usability talks. Improving usability is good, but
targetting at people who don't want to be "technically proficient"
(emphasis: DON'T WANT TO BE, not just "ARE NOT") and just want to press
a magic button and "that's all" is not good. There are topics like
"internal vs external links, users tend to find one and ignore other" -
that's ridiculous, that's NOT the usability problem. I.e. I think we
shouldn't think of "usability initiatives" as of 100% correct ideas.
The Visual Editor is the candy with which you try to engage them.
Sure.
I think the argument being made here -- it is certainly mine -- is simply
"please don't penalize the 'smart people' to benefit the masses,
regardless
of how many people are in each group".
