So, I fully agree on the previous comment. Wouldn' t be worthy to solve that very common used features to make the system more attractive to more users?
Yes, but the design team are made up of UX design specialists. They cannot put down their pens and markers and pick up a keyboard and start fixing some of the other problems (some of which are being solved in harder but much more flexible ways--for example, SIP calling and universal instant messaging will be integrated into the dialer and messaging app. That takes longer to implement and polish than just pushing out half-baked individual apps that don't work well with the application lifecycle, but once the integration work is done, adding new protocols is easy and they all have the same features.)
Likewise, while there is *some* development work and testing to implement a new design, all of the developers aren't putting down their keyboards to pick up pens and makers.
Which isn't to say the new palette is good--it's an ugly and confusing regression that makes the phone far less usable and much less attractive. But it's not delaying other essential work, either.
