Re: [platform-ui-dev] 2.1 M4 Plan posted

[Marco Qualizza <mqualizza@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So, once again, we're going to lose the editors dialog.  *grin* You guys
really don't like that thing, do you?  I mean, this is the second time that
you've killed it off.  What's going to replace the functionality offered by
the dialog?
