I’m in both camp 1 and 2 personally. First I’m in camp 2, I see no value at the moment for my workflow. And, particularly given 2, but for other reasons, I don’t like it taking up prime real estate on the header. If I’m never going to click it, what’s the benefit of it being there. If there’s going to be an always visible icon, I’d rather other options. Give me a create topic icon. Or create PM. Or a shortcut to somewhere. If there’s going to be an icon, I’d love to be able to choose what it does. Almost like a custom sidebar entry.
