Want some advice?

Stop.  

Slow down.

Stop posting so much.

You don't quite know what you're talking about yet.

To be sure: you've some catching up to do.  Very recent features --
some even since 1.1pre5, come into play here.  You'll need some help
from experienced users to figure out how to do what you want to do.

The right way to learn about how to achieve your goals with existing
features is probably not to make many very long posts with half-baked
ideas for redesigns.   You'll get a certain amount of uptake of people
replying point by point -- that will get nowhere fast.

Slow down.  Take a deep breath.  Ask a few good questions.  Work hard
to express them concisely.

The quality and productivity of discussion will improve a lot if you
do that.
