You do bring up good points. It's a shame, but often the low-hanging fruit gets overlooked due to hyperfocus on big-ticket items. IMO the best way to approach something like development for the tablet is assemble teams for the big projects and allocate at least a few people to knocking out the easy stuff (like my alarm bugs, 1691 and 1693). With that approach, I've found that eventually the stuff in the middle is taken care of coincidentally or becomes moot.
