I have noticed this too, and as a plain old  non-POV-Team user, I would like to echo
Tom's sentiment that we definitely appreciate the hard work that has gone into 3.5.
I think the new release is so overwheling that people are diving into it and pulling
up things and saying "Look what I found! Is it a bug, do you think?" while the POV
team, who have been living with this release for a long time, are saying "No, you
nit, that's an undocumented feature - don't you know anything?" I hope we can all
chalk it up to post-release excitement, and that we will eventually iron all this
stuff out.
