It just might not be a good fit for your working style, and we all have to accept that with any new feature.

IS does drive me nuts when I'm working on a long multi-line SQL statement. Those tooltips get in the way! But the rest of it is indispensable, for me and my working style.

Your working style may not match, and that's OK. You might find yourself trying it again in a year or so and liking it, and that's OK too.

The best part of this "feature" is that you can turn it off, or configure it to work the way you work best. That IS the right way to use a tool. Thank the heavens they made it configurable!
