On the March 18 patch, we got taste of the "smurfy" layout mechlab with the marginally useful Mech Details button, with the promise that we'd get the real deal in the coming months. It's been nearly 5 months since then.
Where did it go?

"Backlog".
The "response" is that it would "delay CW".
So, we can't have nice things.

Some of the new stuff on "The Plan" actually looks quite promising.
Then I remember things like UI2.0. Medium Mech Size and Paul.

It's kind of funny that PGI can't find the time to make something which was apparently doable by an amature in his free time.

Not to belittle Smurfy's, but some ajax calls and HTML5 are much easier than writing 3D accelerated GUI's in C. I certainly wouldn't want to write it.
