What happened to the Desktop Patterns option-button-press for Change
Utilities Pattern?  In Desktop Pictures it seems to have fallen off.

And somebody should tell Apple that sorting a window in icon view should
still do a secondary sort by last list-view order, as Opt-Cleanup used
to do in System 7, and as List Views still do.

Also, mounting a disk whilst pressing Shift used to display the disk as
an icon, even if it had had open windows when last mounted.  You could
choose whether to allow MacWorld CD-ROMs to trundle through all their
custom icons or not.

Hope these were accidental errors and are going to be corrected.

To where in the Apple organisation do I send these notes?
