Having two, and always needing to check the other one if you can't find something is ANNOYING.

It is on the agenda Jan 13, 2020

Hi Michael,

I took note of your request in the recent KudoZ thread. I understand your frustration. It is on the agenda for this year... I can't say right now which month.
