hmmm... been using kicad for a few years now.
Most of what he describes are user errors or just don't happen in the 
build I use (zooming for example is always mouse pointer centric).
Ok, I'm using the linux version and take my version from the latest 
build and not the old stable branch that is behind a lot of versions...

I don't say it is perfect and for sure has some annoying behaviors, but 
I really like working with it and I could not do any PCBs anymore 
without "push and shove" and really like that it's currently getting a 
spice integration.
