Seriously, no need to feel hot about the collar :)

There are definitely people who do not like the project browser - that is clear.

I'd also suggest that there are people who don't like the application browser.

So - let us assume that it costs a good deal of time to maintain both and thus having one such thing would be preferable...

Is there a compromise in design which can be come to that satisfies most?

It does seem a little 'silly' to maintain two things which serve essentially the same purpose - so Ali's idea is perhaps the best way forward - what is it that is good and bad about both and is it possible to design something which everybody would be happy with?
