I have two questions regarding the release notes for v. 1.9
The notes mention:
"The list of contexts in the Dock menu and the menu bar status item have been replaced with a list of Perspectives."
Why? (It's not self-evident to me.) That is, what are the benefits? What are the changes intended to accomplish?
In particular, what's the intended benefit of replacing the list of contexts in the Dock menu with perspectives?
Also, what is a "menu bar status item"? Do they require a hunting license?
I am sometimes confused by descriptions of features and changes to them, and happy when they are described in relation to benefits. Benefits can be described via context, ie., in this case, functions, workflows, ie. sequential steps when using OF.
