The question is: was it what people wanted or was it that somebody thought 
people wanted? :)

Even when I do not work like a developer, I find the new EM limited. For 
example, I cannot check if the extension was modified. This is needed in 
live installations sometimes: to do a quick check for that. Also in the old 
EM I just used Ctrl+F to look up through all installed exts. Here I have to 
type and wait in the EM until it makers the result. It is not as fast as I 
want it. It makes me think more than necessary about •how• to do it instead 
of •what• to do.

In other words, I understood the intention of the devs. Implementation is 
definitely better than a 4.6 EM but I still prefer the old 4.5 EM. It is 
subjective and my preference could be due to the fact that I used old EM 
for years. But it would be good to have a way to use the old EM instead of 
new one.
