+1

not only, sl2 interface (and derived like snowglobe2 or kirsten) are a
lot more usefull and speedy for outfit composing and cleariness on
display (maybe just fit chat in a tab like IMs)

i admit after some years with 1.x interface is a bit hard understand
how 2.x interface work, and maybe something should be still fixed, but
if you talk with a new user now is mroe happy than "new users" of 1.x
style interface.

it is only lazyness about learning something new... :)
