+1, simplifying and removing those duplicates is the most important thing.

+1 too, as soon as everything analytical stays inside sextante and may be 
disabled, no problem in having duplication.

Can't agree more on that point.
2.0 is the opportunity to disrupt, and get rid of all little glitches in the 
UI, improve the interface in terms of UX and consolidate existing features 
more than adding thousands of new things.
