It's not secret that this debate is part of an eternal battle on this
list.
You just answered that question. They're not going to read the docs
until
the button mashing doesn't work the way they think it should.
That's not true. We've just had someone on the list explain that they
would like at least some type of dialog that lets them know how
things interact together. I'm not speaking of some outlandish
concepts. These are improvements that others have indicated they
would like to see.
Um, the females are *just* as guilty.
Regrettably, there's not really enough of a female presence on this
list. Which is kinda to all of our disadvantage.
You're still not getting that showing the commands the button runs
will do
nothing to teach concepts.
You're not getting the fact that giving people information in the
interface itself will make a difference -- and we don't even need to
frame it in terms of someone who doesn't know the service. I can
configure DNS just fine, but would love to have a context related
panel pop out from the DNS component on Server Admin for those times
when I need to check something. Newbies would find it even more useful.
you mean like the help menu?
The current help menu involves searching through several panes before
getting at the information. Having context specific information
appear *next to the components* would be useful for the people who
want such a thing.
