refactoring morphic
Hi Lukas, hi Enno
I like that this its short. And I think I'll have to
add
"Now, the biggest annoyance about morphic is that ..."
to my sentence starter list.
I usually start out with the motivation of a morphic
annoyance. If I'm not annoyed enough by something I
won't spend time trying to fix it.
After the annoyance as I start to want to fix it. I
need to focus on the positive side of the user story.
What should morphic do instead?

At the user story stage negatives don't count.
How does the user indicate he wants the keyboard focus
to attend to a particular place?
What moves it?
What would not be allowed to move it?
One of the things I've wanted for a long while is a
sub-keyboard focus.
Arrow keys and cmd keys don't necessarily belong to
the same focus point as text insertion keys.
Can you come up with a user spec for what you want?
Yours in curiosity and service,
Jerome Peace
