"Regarding the UI; currently working on server and client communication system root remodeling and if this completes they should be able to work on the areas where lots question “WHY can’t they do it?” (Guessing most likely referring to stuff like search functions, linkshell functions, which should have been basic stuff)" The was an interview in august with the developers from a JP mag.

I liked reading this because it let's me know they are working on LS function and hopefully smoothing out the UI even further amongst other things.
