I'd hate it.  Given that the Mac interface standard uses only one menu bar,
I hate having it cluttered up with "extra" menus, especially ones with names
as dumb and unhelpful as "Magic".  (I'd hate Magic Menu (TM) only half as much
if it were "Stuff" instead of "Magic".  Yeah, I know I could probably fix that
with ResEdit or something.  I'd still hate it).

What I do like in the current version of Stuffit (TM), and which seems more 
useful and less silly than Magic Menu (TM), are the Stuff (TM) and UnStuff 
(TM) DAs.  (Remember DAs?).

Mind you, I'm not using the mail interface features of StuffIt (TM).

On the user interface, I haven't used Compactor enough to comment, but I
second the sentiment that Stuffit (TM) is cluttered, confusing, and ugly.
