[Qgis-developer] Simplified Processing interface doesn't list GRASS algos

[Victor Olaya]

The idea of the simplified interface was to have an interface that was
more understandable for users with less experience, so you do not have
to know if the algorithm comes from GRASS, SAGA or whatever. That
might be useful for advanced users, but it is confusing for the rest
of them.

Also, if an algorithm is repeated in several backends, only one of
them is added to the simplified interface, eliminating the need to
select one of them (also confusing for users)

GRASS algorithms are not featured in the simplified interface since,
although they are wrapped as Processing algorithms and simplified as
much as possible, you still have to know something about GRASS and its
data structures to use them correctly and not get strange behaviour.
If you want to use a GRASS, algorithm, I am assuming you are an
advanced user, so you can go to the advanced interface.

These were my initial ideas, but if the simplified interface is
causing more confusion than good....I will be happy to take it away
(it will save us devs quite a bit of work...). However, IMHO, it is a
much better UI for most of user, but I would like to hear what people
think.

Thanks for your comments!
