I trust our visual designers to design a split button that does not look like a combo box, just as visual designers have in so many other places. Roman's mockup did npt represent the final visual design for this. > those extra actions are not a fundamental thing at all, and i would not particularly expect to *have* to access them in order for the entire thing to be functional, that makes it ok to me (or even *better*) to be the semi-hidden way of context menu. > and here we are at the point: either the feature gets in with this design, or with a different one requires so much work for little gain that i would advise to not have it at all I agree that the split button is not a must-have (as I already said above: The whole thing is just a shortcut, so it's fine if not everybody knows about it). What I don't like is people dismissing a well-established interaction pattern in desktop computing just because they personally don't like it.
