Johannes: Actually, the "open" button would have the moderator AND the
scribe mode behind mit. Solving this with a popup like in prototype2b
could be a solution, when using a description text like in Prototype3
before.

Concerning the "back" button: There's nothing wrong with the popup
windows, but how should we implement the assistant for the instant mode
then? (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/revager/+bug/494396 and
https://bugs.launchpad.net/revager/+bug/493798)

Positioning lang and aspect buttons: Could look nice to have them
besides, new prototypes welcome ;-)

Why would the user want to open an existing review in "instant" mode?

Status in RevAger: In Progress

Bug description:
After choosing "instant review" on the startup screen (RevAger assistant), the user is offered the option to open an existing Review. But why? If there is already a saved review, this should be rather covered by the "scribe" mode already. Or is there something special about opening previous instant reviews?

Actually I think that both options offered there - the catalog manager and the "open review" function - should be part of the first screen, since they are not really mode-specific. Of course, putting all that those options in the startup screen would make it a bit too cluttered up, since we would have:

- Moderator mode
- Scribe mode
- Instant mode
- Language selection
- Catalog manager
- Open review

Maybe it would be worth considering a re-design of the first screen, i.e. offering only:

- Start new review
- Open existing review
- Open Catalog manager
- Select language

Choosing the first option would allow the user to specify the mode in the following wizard step.
