I did find they saved me some time ocassionally, especially if I forgot 
just what the actual name of some particular command or message was.  
Stuff like Control Structures, though, didn't even realize there was a 
menu for that.

What I'd really love is some sort of auto-complete for commands, 
properties, functions, etc.  At the very least for commands, once 
you've typed a "on " as the first characters of a line in the script 
editor, if common commands and messages could show up after that like 
they do in Internet Explorer, that would be great.

I've stayed away from 2.5 because the early releases seemed very 
incomplete.  However, I think I'll dive into this new 2.5 beta now.  
When is the estimated time arrival for 2.5 final?
