Ah, you're not alone. That is one of the biggest problems we have in user experience design. You need to observe users performing simple tasks (without directions!) to appreciate how confusing many people find the systems we build. Part of the problem is that developers are very good with systems and have a hard time appreciating that many people aren't.
Anyway, thanks for taking up the suggestion.
