Is there any way to turn Tapestry screens into individual pages instead of a continuous, very inaccurate, scrolling screen? Or at least to have it only scroll for 4 grids (the width of two Tapestries) on a swipe instead of its current behaviour of scrolling until it *passes* the first row of icons it finds (in the next set of 4 grids), putting them offscreen? :/

Frankly, each 4x4 grid should be discrete pages instead of continuously scrolling - very annoying behaviour. This is especially bad for widgets...

Or am I right in my thinking that this is just a rather blatant way to try and get people to put everything inside Tapestries (instead of on the main screen where they belong), probably for better categorization by Discovery?

Frankly, I'm on the verge of installing a new launcher (though I'd rather just go with the default Android launcher, if at all possible). Tapestries has quickly become an irritant.
