Hi Jens,

When the ribbon was introduced and people started trying the nightly
builds it was generally quite popular. Personally I really like it,
though I can see why some people might not. It's all down to personal
preference.

As for not making it the default, if we did that with every new
feature then few people would ever notice they were there.

Anyway, glad you have it sorted now.

Simon
