I don't know. I admit the fade effect looks kinda kewl, but I disabled
it pretty quickly because I found it too annoying to have to wait for
the fade before I could navigate the menus.

I hope the Qt painter sticks around for those of us who prefer quick
menu navigation to pretty transitions.
I don't like PowerPoint presentations with lots of fades and animated
transitions between slides, either. :) It distracts from the
information being presented.
