Actually all Evo needs to do is include a hook to read a per-user config XML file while starting up. Doesn't sound hard, but for some reason no-one has got round to implementing it. If so, it might be case of the best being enemy of the good, i.e. "it's too much work to implement config dialogues for the UI, and making the user edit XML files doesn't conform to the HIG standards, so tough luck". I'm speculating of course. > Funny how almost anything requested as a change to Evolution is made > years and years ago... The operative word is "almost".
