a) yes, first this needs to work as intended
b) yes, please give feedback

My biggest problems are (i) I usually don't know how to implement
solutions to the reported problems. Marco has been extremely helpful,
but working on QML is his day job, which makes working on a QML
dive log (as a non-diver) not really a very exciting hobby... we need more
QML developers who also are divers. and (ii) time - I happen to have a
bit of time this week and jumped right in, but I know that this will dry
up again come Monday

All that said, please help us make things better. And detailed feedback
is a great way to do so.

Cool. Thanks

I have access to a Nexus 5X here (if I can wrestle one from the hands
of two certain twelve year olds...)
