I have now posited that there is an "escape room" theory of computer user-interface design. The object here is to hide the controls that are required to perform a particular function so that you must carefully search the entirety of the user-interface to find the correct menu selection or button to press to get your work done.

I am not sure why this is a good idea.

I went to add some code to one of our projects today. I got a certain number of steps into it, went to call a method, and then realized *that* method is in a different branch.

Sooner or later, we must ship all of these things so that I have all the code that I need everywhere.
