Hi Josh

It's cool that you want to play with the new version of traits. However,
keep in mind that while this is much cleaner and more stable on the
level of the kernel, the UI still lacks most of the features that are
available in the old (prototype) version and are absolutely central for
the real "traits experience". (Finally, it's the UI and not the
internals you actually deal with). We hope that we can work on this more
as soon as I have my Ph.D. thesis out of the door...

Cheers,
Nathanael
