> If there was someone with the vision to truly drag this OS forward they would be aiming to rewrite at least a handful of these tools to modern tech consistently each release.

The thing people miss, and that I have been unfortunately privy to, are the incredibly number of large companies that customize these older dialogs.

They add controls, remove controls, override anything and everything.

This is why something that seems simple ("scrap it and start over") does not fully solve the problem. You have thousands of customers who rely on that old dialog.

The only choice would be to run them side-by-side for a long time and warn these customers that stuff is being deprecated. If they don't move forward in a certain period of time, they can not use the newest OS.
