I think the known bugs of the current wallet should be fixed as first priority. It's hard for me to trust the new wallet or new features when the bugs of current version are simply ignored by dev. It makes me feel that the dev team is really short of hands. Can you imagine that microsoft claims stopping windows updates because they are developing a new version with more features?
If you stripped microsoft down to a couple of dev's and a budget of $0 then... yes.
I think the job is well done so far by the dev. That's just my suggestion to improve the user experience. I like more neat features too, but I hope they are built on a solid base step by step.
