Comment (by jkudish):

 I was travelling so I am just catching up on the conversation here and
 going to quickly throw in my thoughts on everything that's been said (but
 will bare repeating at the Menus
 [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/21/menus-discussion-today/
 discussion] in a few minutes as well. Essentially I agree with @lessbloat
 on most of his points, but will elaborate:

 * I agree in regards to complex functionality, that should stay in plugins
 and we should keep the UI minimal and clean while affording functionality
 for ~80% of users
 * I am also not married to the two tab UI, but just as the test confirm,
 it's a much better interface than what we had before. If someone makes a
 good mockup that shows a redo of the one tabbed UI, I might jump ship :)
 * The "locations" meta box was a bit odd on the right side. But it also
 most definitely does not belong hidden in "screen options", that's a
 really bad place for it. I think that either below or above the list of
 menus may be a better place for it. It's hard to only display it when
 editing a specific menu since it's the kind of thing that could be changed
 without needing edit a menu.

 Just my 2 cents. Looking forward to the discussion shortly.
