Exactly what you said. I've only given it a test run, but I immediately noticed the 'lack' of layer controls. It simply has to be within reach all the time.
Admitting to some of QCADs shortcomings, I have yet to find a 2D CAD that beats it in 'speed' as soon as you learn just a few of the comprehensive set of keyboard short cuts.
I stopped holding my breath for ver. 3 when I blacked out though, I guess they will release it when they're good and ready.
I don't think it's as bad as it used to be, but perhaps I have an atypical setup: 4Gb RAM + 1Gb swap on a SSD. When something leaks or I set a wrong param. in a program I use, it usually takes around 1 - 1½ min. for the kernel to do an OOM and restart X, granting me a login screen - I've lost everything I worked on of course.
I installed the BFS with 2.6.34 and I have not looked back since - I can wholeheartedly recommend this scheduler, it WILL make up for the time spent figuring out how to recompile a kernel if you're a newbie. Lag is not acceptable on a modern desktop.
Same here. I spent six months in NZ and had the BIGGEST BADDEST internet connection available - I think the download once went up to 100kb/s ! and D/L limit was 10gigs a month - and we were 3 people using it:( Coming from Denmark where I currently have a lowly 10Mb line with ulim. download, I was quite shocked.
Oil and coffee are the biggest commodities in the world, I was a bit surprised, but Columbia exports more coffee beans than cocaine, at least officially.
Try googling it.
..development indeed!

Are you sure you want to go down this path?

Which incidentally is why Linux users are so intelligent - sigh
Yeah, don't try baby oil on those.

..chance or risk?
