I thought I would get lynched for that, but:
- L is not an applet, it is a separate program/window. And windows behave this 
way. So, from one POV it is a 'departure from interaction consistency', but 
from another it is not.
- One of the main principles behind L were UI experiments. Experimenting *is*
trying to do things differently.

I have never tried to push L to the mainstream (Kickoff and Raptor war from 
pre-4.0 era) because it would mean that my hands would be more or less tied by 
opinions of others.

I would very much appreciate your comments Aaron (or anyone else's for that
matter) on everything I do or try to do. (and I'm not just saying this)

Live long and prosper :)

Cheers,
Ivan
