Overhaul of Accounts

[Colin Barrett]

Hey Patrick,

Allow me to put on my designer hat:

When doing any sort of redesign, it's really important to write out your goals -- what specifically about the old design that you find problematic, what you hope to achieve with the new design, etc. I think writing that out would be really helpful here, since it seems people are pretty confused about this redesign.

I will note that I'm pretty sure that accounts used to look very similar to this before the current design and was changed to the current design by Zac I believe for some sound reasons. It would be interesting to see how your thought process compares to his.

Cheers,
-Colin
