Honestly, I'm not sure how it'll be received. Most of the backlash was from the alpha development UI, there's still some going around but I've also seen it drop off significantly since then.
So long as they give constructive feedback about what needs changing, I'm all for it (within reason anyway). The trouble with being in this position is that I developed the system, therefore I know how the UI works inside and out - which makes me terrible for usability testing because I'm not a 'blank slate' as it were.
There'll be whiners, but I'm imagining most of it will be about migration being dropped and the general 'Y U CHANGE IT' crowd. The latter will never be pleased, so why bother, and the former I'm hoping will understand my reasoning for it.
I'm just hoping they post their feedback in comments/on the thread. It's hard for me to assess general opinion without knowing where they're posting their feedback - I'm not a mind reader after all
