100% agreed, that is why I thought "umm... what's so special about this presentation mode?" when I saw that page.  To me that should be planned into the program.  If your patches are messy for performance, code cleaner, use subpatches, etc, no excuses for that as far as I see.  Sends and receives for gui objects have been there since I started..  I guess I wasn't really excited about any of that stuff :) but then again maybe I misunderstand..
