Thanks Konstantin.  We'll consider that when we can.  (We're currently 
using Visual Studio 2010.  Moving to Visual Studio 2015 would be too 
much to take on for our next major release).

_I hope that some folks can share authoritative responses about the 
intention for the future of these respective styles_ ... _Fusion_ and 
_WindowsVista_.  We have A LOT of user interface documentation which 
would have to be updated if we "need" to move to Fusion.
