 I understand in which way this change is a "regression" as you said above.

 It's not so much of a "code" regression, but when there is only one box
 visible, now there will be up to three "drop areas" asking the users to
 "Drag boxes here". See

 containers-without-patch.png)]]

 The users can select to have only one box visible on the Dashboard, also
 plugins can disable some of the default boxes. That's why I'm expecting
 there may be some confusion :)
