Yes, the Fuel UI does need a usability review -- it's such a nice interface
with
just a few little rough spots.    While you are at it, feel free to
critique the User's
Guide, which in a way is an extension of the Fuel UI:
http://docs.mirantis.com/openstack/fuel/master/user-guide.html#settings-tab
I would love it if people doing support could suggest additional material
to add
to the description of the various screens -- the questions you get from
support
probably indicate things that are not clear to new users.

A couple specific issues:
- The "Settings" Tab contains an utter mismash.  One possibility is to
subdivide it -- the
  intro to the doc has a description of what is here that might e a
blueprint for
  how to subdivide it:
http://docs.mirantis.com/openstack/fuel/master/user-guide.html#settings-tab
- The "Logs" tab seems worth a glance -- I'm not sure why these logs were
selected
  for inclusion here and it seems that the descriptive names may not be the
most
  informative for new users.  It may be that what we have is perfect and
the docs need
  to explain what they are -- that needs to happen in any event.
