| Yes they can. By internals I mean that we internally operate on full

So by 'I'm starting to think that we are over emphasising the full tree
aspects of our internals.', you meant 'I think that our UI is too
strongly influenced by the full-tree nature of our internals'?

Personally, I like full-tree defaults, but I can understand that.
