U and I need to talk

If you follow the xTuple Product Roadmap at all you might notice that version 4.0 targeted for early 2010 is slated to offer significant user interface (UI) enhancements. The idea is add tools that help users learn how to use the system and find information quickly. We are looking for feedback from the community about what they would find most useful. Based on the feedback we get from day to day, what users like about xTuple is our clean no-nonsense interface. We often hear from our fans "Please don't wreck your clean interface by cluttering it with a bunch of useless eye candy like so many other systems." On the other hand we do hear criticism that even though the application is very poweful the interface is almost too... spartan.

What we need right now is feedback from you! What would you find most useful? What do you absolutely not want us to change? In particular, we are looking for feedback on general organization such as navigation, search capabilities, and data organization. Your feedback can make a difference, let us know your thoughts by posting your comments here.
