Browser controls rant

[father_of_6]

I'm baffled that the most recent update included new icons for the browser, as well as a loading screen, yet somehow they managed to not fix the icon positioning. It's a glaringly obvious UI fail... the close and back buttons are *so* close to each other. All of the other icons have a healthy amount of space between them, but those two are butted right against each other. I've accidentally closed the browser when trying to hit the back button *many*, *many* times.

Looking closely, it appears that the address bar is in the center, the back and forward buttons evenly divide the remaining left side, the two favorite icons evenly divide the remaining right side, and then the close button is placed *on top* of the back button... just slapped in the left corner to be consistent with other windows.

It almost seems like the folks that write the software don't actually use it.

Before this update, I'd just assumed that "they're too busy to spend time fixing the silly misalignment of browser controls". Since they've just updated it though, I'm really left scratching my head (or maybe I just have a dry scalp).
