Recent messages in commit dialog

Hi,

I just wanted to say that I love TortoiseSVN, but I was disappointed by the
new "Recent Messages" dialog in the Commit dialog in 1.3. I just don't see
how this is a usability improvement. Yes, I read:
http://svn.haxx.se/tsvn/archive-2005-11/0309.shtml
and messages before and afterwards in the thread.

For me, it's not an improvement. I use the recent messages quite often,
especially for general messages for cleanup stuff where I just want to
change at maximum two words in a previous message.

Now it's just farer away than before and doesn't feel "natural" anymore.
Natural -- I know, not the right word -- but the way it was before is the
same as in many other "Commit-Frontends". You get used to it.

I know this has been discussed for quite a while, I don't want to start a
new discussion. Nevertheless you should know that there are certainly people
out there who don't like this new way.

Best Regards,
Michael Paesold

P.S: Strangely, this was not even mentioned in the release notes and it was
quite hard to find the references to the reasons why this was changed.
