UX design help

[Albert Vaca Cintora]

We already have some views in Compose, but definitely not all. In general
we don't just convert XML to Compose, unless using Compose gives us some
kind of advantage or makes implementing some feature or fixing some bug
easier. If someone wants to convert things to Compose, I'm fine with that
as long as the result is not worse than what we have now.
