Unlike in previous revisions, as far as I'm aware there has been no loss of functionality at all.
I really don't understand what all the fuss is about.

Their first iteration had a really awful bold font which they fairly quickly improved (which supports my notion that they didn't really ask a wide enough range of beta testers what they thought) so you won't see that now. But apart from the anti-aliasing issue (which I am mercifully free from) and apart from the removal of the perfectly useful option to switch fonts and apart from the completely pointless and screen-cluttering forced addition of folder icons to whatever theme it was that I was using... there remains the fact that they dumped all this on us without fair notice. I think there's probably enough there to be worth fussing about.
