Well, it matters in a practical sense, in terms of work prioritization.

If you read carefully you'll see I used the word "initially", so I'm not saying these things won't be done, just not in the first version.

As far as orthogonality, I agree 100%, that's exactly why the design is the way it is, orthogonality.

First time I've heard snapshots mentioned, have you read the previous discussion in this thread about the ability to switch logical surface maps at the touch of a button ?

Is this what you mean by snapshots ?
