      Is 4.1 looking at the new UI?  I was looking at the JP thread listed in the XI View thread and it looks like it's going to break a lot of stuff.

        The main thing I noticed that breaks with the new UI is add_to_chat, because SE added a function which allows text to be directed to the different chat logs. IIRC Iryoku managed to hook it before the last update (they implemented part of the v4.1 UI in the previous test server version update). There are sure to be a few other changes required (ability to detect where windows are for things like TParty may be a big one), but by-and-large the "new UI" is just a reskinning of the old with few windower-relevant feature additions. People have reported logging in to the test server with the new UI on v4.1 without crashing (no plugins) already, which is a good sign.
