for anyone looking at it, what's most annoying is the absence of mouse
control or any mouse positioning at all in single-line fields,
including the main url.
also just noticed another thing for the list: it's strange to only see
one option at a time in an option menu, and I imagine scrolling would
get impossibly fiddly if there were more than 5 or 6 options. see the
session time option here for example: https://www.fastmail.fm/

This is obviously some strange usage of the
word "simple" that I was previously unaware of.
