"I'd happily horse whip the UI designers until they start doing their fucking job properly."
Remember the old days when the UI was more or less fixed but left a fair amount of scope for the user to customise it to suit themselves?

MS even sold actual themes you could install for a more joined up but different look for those less adept at design continuity. It seems theses days, it all must look the same for all users, the MS way or the highway.
