The perfect place for everybody who's complained about S60v5, to show how they'd like to see it done.

I smell v5 FP2 down the line. Of course, it won't be available on the N97. You'll have to buy a new phone if you want any pretty screen transitions (which I do).

While i think it's cool they are looking for user opinions i also find it sad at the same time that they can't come up with a better UI without resorting to users.

Why be so cynical? Many of the features from FP2 were backported to FP1...
