I feel about them like I feel about touch screens; they lead to imprecision and error, and take extra seconds out of life, correcting mis-steps.

Posting your frustration to the forum when you know Volunteers cannot help you and when you know Staff will not be available until August 16th makes no sense to me. It simply means another space in the limited space on the front page of the forum will be oocupied by a thread we cannot help with. When Staff return you can share your feedback and suggestions with them using this link. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

Yesterday, I wrote a post and saved it to draft and when I went back to it, it had disappeared . I thought I had imagined it for about ten minutes until I checked my second blog and found it there ! I printed the draft and posted it to the correct blog .
I had clicked the wrong blog in the hover menu .
If I can do it anyone can - can't they !

I just keep a tab open at all times with my comments screen(s) and that will have to do.

Maybe I just hate hover menus period.
And it might be a Mac thing; I don't know. When I have occasionally used them with a friend's PC, I do notice that the menus stick, instead of vaporizing, if you miss your mark. Maybe the klunkier graphics/screen interface of a PC is an advantage in this circumstance.

I just WISH I could. Lately, though, in the past week, there have been times when I couldn't even get one space in there. I hoped it was just update glitches.

Me, I am still trying to come to terms with the new drop down hover menus. I left a post on the Forum about my frustration with them.

Typing normally and hitting Enter gives you double spaces. Hitting it while holding shift down gives you single spaces. I've seen recent reports that it's otherwise, but if so, it's changed again.

I usually love the WordPress updates, but the new dropdowns have me sad.

I have three blogs, and the main thing I do with my dashboard is manage comments. Tucking that option two layers down in a hover menu is really slowing me up. I use a MacBook with a trackpad, and it's just irritating as heck to have to nail the hover exactly right to make it down to the now-deep Manage Comments menu item.

What would really rock is a customizable one-click button for the main menu bar, so I can get to my comments on my main blog with one click. I'm sure that many people feel the same way- New Post and Manage Comments are what I want to get with minimal clicking and especially no hovering.

Am I missing something obvious that would help?

This is not a copy and paste relic, but a WordPress typing issue.

It's annoying not to be able to choose to leave one or two blank "lines" between paragraphs by using hard returns.

http://rvinoth.wordpress.com/2010/07/20/are-we-alone/

I see spaces where they should be.

The problem in the first one you cited is in your code. Instead of plain Div tags, it has this variation:

<div id="_mcePaste">

That looks very much like you pasted the contents from somewhere else, and that will ALWAYS screw up a blog. You will need to go to the code editor and edit those out to be simple

<div>
tags.

Have you changed the way you post at all?
