[UI] Squeak UI/Usability Design

[Geert Claes]

I agree with previous posts that Squeak does not need to mimic Windows or
even Mac as their look and feel.

However, instead of starting with ideas on how to improve the UI
technically, I reckon the first thing the UI group needs to come up with is
a complete list of functionality (World Menu, Open Menu, Appearance Menu,
Windows & Flaps Menu, Browsers ...) which somehow will need to be accessed
by the user. This should then be the sole input for a proper usability
design irrespective of OS. The result of this usability design will be some
basic interface mock-ups defining how a user will be able to access a
certain functionality. Graphic designers can then come up with colour
schemes and icons to make to whole thing appealing to the eye.
