You're not the only one who was a bit surprised to see some obvious polishing opportunities left undone.
To riff on your thematic materials here:
the "font issue" appears when you check and uncheck an item in the view columns window. It goes away if you close the window and return, but this should be well-settled code, as the lawyers would say.
Clicking in some of the boxes in the Inspector sometimes gets an outline like this (see the Variance End box):
(and speaking of the Inspector, why did the ability to tab through most of the fields get yanked?!?)
The toolbar customization gets worse: if you bring up the dialog, and click on the choice for Show: Icon & Text the whole thing immediately goes grey and is unusable.
I bet if I went to the trouble of checking the bugs I reported, I would find a substantial percentage still present, even if I restricted it to the ones where I was told they would be fixed before shipping. Doesn't seem like a productive use of my time, or likely to improve anyone's day, so I'm not going to do that!
