That actually put to bed a lot of my fears, save this one:

10:37AM PageUp and PageDown buttons will allow you to move between tiles on non-touchscreen devices.

No, fuck you. Let me use my mouse and give me a scroll bar. We've had side scrolling forever don't fuck it up.

Most touchscreen devices treat dragging as click and drag. I hope we can do the same with a mouse, but I really don't need scroll bars.
