[APBeta] 2.0a7 -- Hooray, it works!

[Jeff Young]

Robin --

I think the whole paradigm shift from MDI to SDI was to remove the
concept of an "application" -- for the most part there are just
documents.

Users familiar with the "new world order" are therefore likely to be
quite surprised by the dialog box.  I can't think of any other apps that
do this.  Plus, the launch time of V2 seems to be much improved, so I'm
not sure it's needed.

But I think an "expert mode" feature would be fine -- it would just need
to be backwards from your suggestion (ie: hold key down to get dialog
instead of to bypass it).

Cheers,
-- Jeff.
