    eurokb is neither a feature of XX, nor of operating system, so it's a non-standard solution. It also forces you to switch the keyboard layout to US or UK keyboard and use keyboard shortcuts which is...

    Splitting is not necessity, of course, but it would bring much more clarity. Issues and Wishlist could be, I guess, useful for the Xara team. Then there are probably users who only wish to browse for...
