"Because something can be done is not a reason that it should be done"
Surely many things can be changed about Xara, but would it make the program better than it is. Simply "because I would rather have all the tools in one program" is not an adequate answer.
Corel and Adobe have added new features as people have requested them. Have they made a better product? Many people believe they are the best product. For those people it may be. I personally don't find them to fit my work style.
Changes were made between Xara X¹ and Xara Xtreme. There are some users that have not upgraded to Xtreme because the features they need are not available. Was the trade off worth it for them? Obviously not.
Will future trade offs make the program less desirable for current users?
Will the people requesting changes find they no longer need that feature as they become more comfortable with the way the program works without it?
I'm not opposed to new features. The Action Scripts would be a nice addition. I just don't want to lose existing features.
