Having used 2.3 beta for some time today, I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with the UI. The things we've added at times feel superfluous, and actually degrade the UI. How long before we need to begin really refining the UI — because I think there is a lot of work still to do.

One example, the pagination and with selected. While the page-jump functionality is great, and we like the fancy button styling, if I was shown these side by side and had to choose the one I preferred, the choice is obvious, right?
