Regarding the performance issue I was seeing, it might have had something to do
with the fact I accidentally had my laptop (a lighting fast one) in "power
save" mode. Once I renegaged the CPU :) the woodstock performance is far more
reasonable !
As far as Common Task Page, you're obviously aware it doesn't work in the
visual designer.
But beyond that it just seemed to me that the names for the 3 components in the
palette could be better - can't remember off hand what they were but they
seemed confusing to me (admittedly an easy thing to do). Anyway, I thought more
expressive names such as Common Task Container, Common Task Section and Common
Task Unit or something like that be more intuitive than what they currently
are.
Thanks for the pointers!
