It compiles and what was said works, it works. 

One major regression mentioned by Arnd: after playing with LT it is
impossible to Preview images with context menu and click. Only F3 works.

Looks OK. Scaling works.

If this is technically much easier for produce/maintaining/expanding OK.
But already IE as separate window can confuse users.

Not sure if it is "missing feature" or design: it is not possible to
drag'n'drop to LT.
