Because the interaction model of the current g-k-m is confusing, even for
me. :-) I think six months will give the usability team time to work on the
interaction model with you, and polish it up for inclusion.

Keyring stuff isn't horribly difficult to understand (but yes, it is a bit
foreign), but it's the current g-k-m design that I'm worried about. I had
lots of trouble working it out, and I totally understand how the keyring
works.

I can't give you great answers on this, which is why I suggest collaboration
with Bryan + the usability team between now and the 2.9/2.10 module freeze.
