Simplifying the Staff View Conversation

From now on, instead of writing long opinions about Staff View, just say A, B, C, or D.  This will save countless hours and terabytes of storage.  Here are the definitions:
 
A - Music is written on the staff and has been for centuries.  Staff view bugs should be fixed.
B - The staff view is good enough for a sequencer as it is.  Buy a notation program if you want more.
C - I don't read music and don't care.  In fact, I should be using Ableton.
D - For some weird reason, I think the Staff view makes Sonar more expensive.  Remove it.
 
Now, all you have to do is decide if you are A, B, C, or D and then type that on any of the 1,000 threads on this topic.

There is a problem with the staff view? I thought the problem was no VST3.

I don't think i fit neatly into any of those categories but nice try.

You can have my staff when you pry it out of my cold dead hand.

>>> A - Music is written on the staff and has been for centuries. Staff view bugs should be fixed. <<<
 
Just to be clear - does "A" mean, address SV limitations which have existed since the dawn of time, -OR- are we referring to unexpected or diminished SV behaviors / appearance which manifested themselves with the advent of the Sonar X series?

I am for "A"

But I actually like when people chime in with B ...even if it's not relevant.  Sometimes I even want to write "Sonar is not and will never be a Notation program! ". 

I figure if I write it first, then the people who came to the thread just to add that, can stay out of the conversation.

Or maybe this variation of D "for some weird reason, I think Staff View makes Sonar way more messy to code than it is worth.  Remove it."

- But here's the thing... Are we talking "bugs" or UI or both. I would say both.
It would help me if people would (after their initial "Letter Vote"), especially if it's "A", to expound upon the bugs.

For me, not having the "tools" (i.e. change the mouse pointer) available both inside the Staff window and/or in a right-click menu is CERTAINLY a UI that should be added. It teeters on "bug" as far as i'm concerned.
If i have my staff view on my right monitor, I have to move my mouse over to the top of the left monitor to change from "write" to "erase" - how crazy is that. 
Now that i'm writing this (and unfortunately i'm @ work) i wonder if i could get a Keyboard Shorcut" to handle that situation. in either case, it should still be in the Staff Window or on the right-click menu, and better yet on both.

(but I suppose everything I have seen which refers to it, call it a staff 'View' not a staff 'Editor'.  However if they want to put in a staff 'view' with editing facilities it should at least work, IMHO)
