if a new UI is introduced that is significantly different
from the classic one, it MUST be possible change back and forth.


Agree completely. I think that not including such an option is shooting
yourself in the foot.

Neither do I agree with Pedro. He may have a wide screen monitor,
however, the install base of old fashioned CRTs is huge. I'd even hazard
a guess that if everyone in the world who currently has a CRT monitor
was to switch to a wide screen (cost and availability aside) the old
CRTs would make a pile tall enough that any self respecting mountaineer
would be eager to tackle. (Classic case of Jungian projection.)


I am well aware that most users don't have a wide screen monitor. But even
for those, this interface is better. Instead of having a top menu bar where
toolbars are added/removed making your text jump up and down, with this UI
your text doesn't move. Only the toolbars discretely change the button faces
(like in Gimp)

BTW I always prefer a good old CRT to a cheap LCD/LED ;)
