Re: [Usability] SoundJuicer "Submit Track Names" is unusable.

I'm sorry, but while your point of view is undeniably valid it reminds
me irresistibly of the Dilbert comic strip in which an engineer says

"I'll make the command easy to remember, like 'CTRL-ALT-F4-DEL.' And
if they forget that, they can just edit the source code in
'COMMAND.COM.' Perfect."

Just because you think something "isn't that hard", don't assume
everybody else has the time or inclination to go through the learning
curve as well.    Make things as simple and intuitive as possible, not
as twisted and complicated as you personally are happy to put up with.
I would have thought that would be Usability 101.
