Is there an example of another feature that people would consider 
missing in the WL viewer on low (other than ripple water)?  I may very 
well be forgetting something, but I don't recall anything else that 
could be considered missing.
 
Water did become more complex at the higher end in the WL viewer, but 
also much, much prettier and more configurable (while leaving the 
fallback method untouched).  When the water was updated we realized that 
keeping fallback water, old ripple water, *and* new water all around at 
the same time would be rather difficult from a coding and maintenance 
standpoint.
 
However, if someone is willing to create a patch that cleanly integrates 
an in-between water option again (ripple water) back in with the other 
two current ones, I would definitely be willing to look it over on my 
end and bring it in if it's solid.  I could definitely make time for 
something like that if anyone is interested.  Thoughts?
 
Take care,
