Why don't they work on fixing the still-manifold bugs in the reader software (like the *still*-present bug that causes search dialogs etc to vanish as soon as they appear sometimes, rendering them essentially unusable: a frequently-occurring bug fixed only by a reboot) rather than adding useless frippery like this?

Sigh. I know why: the incentives are the same as in the rest of the software industry: adding features, even stupid features, is much more incentivized than making the already-present features work properly, even very important ones.
