I started a thread in the forums in an attempt to discuss the very same issues:

http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/#topic/A-Request-For-Dolphin-7-Beta-2-testers-.htm

No one is offering any suggestion in that one either. The problem here is everyone likes to complain, but very, very few like to present better ideas.

Personally, I think the D7 user interface is just fine. It's wrong in a few places, but nothing that can't be fixed.

There are quite a few complex sites with mass appeal. see more Go have a look at yahoo.com or espn.go.com Those 2 sites have a lot going on....so do a lot of other sites.

I don't think Dolphin should be "Dumbed down" to accommodate the most inexperienced of internet user. Remember the old saying: "Build a system that even a fool can use, then only fools will use it."
