[TYPO3-hci] Consistency between programs

[Søren Schaffstein]

Hi there,

in my opinion one of the major problems with software is consistency of 
concepts. If you work with one program for quite some time and it uses a 
shortcut for making text bold for example you get used to this. If you 
use another program later and you find out that this does not work any 
more you need to learn a new concept. Perhaps clicking a button. And way 
back in time there were wordprocessors which needed you to type 
something around your text to make it bold (like in HTML).

So one of our goals should be to analyse our TYPO3 in terms of 
consistency compared to other programs in concepts. My favorite Example 
(until 4.0) was the gremlin that you couldn't create a backend user in 
the "user admin" section. Everyone looked there first, because you 
learned this concept from other software!

So let's start to list such inconsistencies here.
