+1 for that.
I'm still on 0.24.1 (if it aint broke and all that) and it works well enough for me to find anything else "really limiting and odd". While the setup program isn't the best think around, it does the job - and if it's the choice between a dev spending time improving that or improving something else then I'd suggest the setup program isn't a high priority.

It's easy get hung up on details like this, but we should not lose sight of just what a marvellous system we do have. In case any of the devs get the wrong idea from what can look like complaints, I for one am very grateful for their efforts.
