That's not my experience. I've reported this to him on two occasions, with screenshots and detailed descriptions of how the UX had regressed.

First one took a year before I got a reply (after reminding him), and only partly answered the request.

The second one I'm still waiting for a reply.

I would love for Dash 5 to fix these issues still, and I would upgrade in a heartbeat, but as it stands, I'm stuck with Dash 4.

The issues are:

1. Dash 4's sidebar shows significantly more hits when searching, making it a lot easier to find what you were looking for, compared to the "omnibar" of Dash 5:

2. Dash 4 shows/loads the currently selected search immediately, requiring no extra step. Dash 5 requires the user to press enter to confirm the search. This is especially frustrating when triggering a search from an editor

edit: where did he indicate he was looking for feedback on these features?

I thought it was in the release notes for v5, but I can't find them at this point to verify. I suppose I may be misremembering.
