I completely agree. I think that the latest menu
reorganization was poorly thought out and based on a
questionable premise that it is better minimize the
number of selections at each menu level in order to
make items at each level visible with minimal or no
scrolling at the expense of having to burry things at
deeper levels. I don't find that having to navigate
down into a larger number of menu levels is any
improvement over scrolling for them in fewer
not-so-deep levels.
