There are some things in fremantle i really don't like and which i think nokia should re-think. This thread is to voice these things and to see whether others see the same problems (in which case nokia might want to re-think things) or if they are fine with this (in which case i might want to re-think things).
  • It will not contain libosso-help anymore and thus won't have any central help system at all anymore. The idea is that every application now does its own help system however it wants. This is imho a very bad step backwards as it will just cause help systems to disappear
  • The finger scrollable text windows (HildonPannableArea with GtkTextView inside) don't support text selection. Thus most applications like modest and e.g. the web browser won't allow to select text for copy'n paste (this is still possible using the cursor keys but only if the text is actually editable and has a visible cursor)

For me both of these are really show-stoppers and i can't understand why they are happening. We just learned that even apple can't live without copy'n paste on the iphone ...

Feel free to add more ...
