This one *must* be simple (or alternatively, totally impossible): can
we have a flashing or solid block for the cursor rather than just the
flashing underline? It would make editing a lot faster by cutting down
the squint-to-find-the-cursor time. (I suppose it might mess up the
Mix->Volume page though.)

Speaking of which, anyone else having problems with settings made to 
volume in the mixer page not being saved everytime?  Ran into this 
last night when I was adjusting the levels of my tracks in a 
pattern.  I would cursor over and use the Data wheel to change the 
volume to what I wanted, then save the pattern.  Sometimes the 
pattern would save with the correct settings, other times the 
previous settings were still retained.

I tried to use the Stopx3 to reload the pattern parameters (both 
before and after the save), though that didn't solve it either.  This 
was a weird bug to me, as performing the exact same procedure to 
replicate it didn't always work.  Sometimes it would save the 
changes, sometimes it wouldn't.  I couldn't figure out why it did 
this, but I was able to reproduce it readily with numerous patterns.  
I'd say it only saved the changes correctly 1 times in 3.  Anyone 
else confirm this?
