Hi everyone,

@Joerg, I agree a full 100% with you. Infact in my popup mockup, I was
planning to show the "Cancel Route" or "Cancel Simulation" like we already
have. I suppose it makes sense to also add "Nearby Destination" since it
seems like a good feature to retain. Regarding the search page, consider it
done :). I will get to it along with menu redesign.

@Marcos, What do you think? Joerg does have a good point. 0.59 is AMAZING!
If we wait perhaps 1 week more, we can come up with a good new menu
navigation which will really make users happy. In your email replies, you
were concerned that the NearBY Destination is being removed. Well you just
got that back. Along with leaving settings action in the header like we
have now.  Also you did agree that moving search action to the page header
is indeed a very smart move and something you agreed to.

Can we please start with the implementation of this? Do you agree to it?

Cheers,
Nekhelesh
