That would be awesome. I know there are reasons behind the removal of the
pie menu and its replacement by a well known list menu, but PLEASE I am so
much more productive and less frustrated with the old pie menu ! Muscle
memory and size of the clickable areas and all that. Simply put with the
list menu I have to look where I'm clicking, with the pie menu I don't. It
is a huge gain of time.
