I started before version 1 was released, but I can't remember what
specific point release it was.<br>

The difference in the default GUI between versions isn't really
relevant for myself, because one of the reasons I love Mozilla
products is the ability to customize the UI. I heavily customize the
UI in both. Someone who only ever uses the default GUI would have a
hard time knowing I'm even using Firefox or Thunderbird.<br>

While there is value in designing a default GUI that makes it easy
to find things, please do so with the knowledge that you will never,
ever please everyone (or even likely half of everyone), and be sure
people can continue to customize things the way they want - ie,
customizable toolbars/buttons, ability to customize the layout
itself, etc - meaning, I suppose, full fledged theming support for
all UI elements.<br>
