It's not helpful to the OP, who wants something that's not really doable, and it's not helpful to the rest of you because nobody here is in a position to do anything about your opinions.
And, I might add, even those who might be in a position to authorize/effect change in reaction to these various requests to do <blah> can only be far from convinced by the arguments presented thus far.
Apple engineering is hardly deaf to feature requests (we receive, appreciate, and act on them all the time) but they have to be argued from some "greater good" perspective to have any chance of success. Personal preference arguments usually don't make it unless it can be demonstrated that there is some large number of persons asking for the same thing (and "asking loud" will not be confused with a strong argument, though folks are always likely to try that approach first).
