Person option is vital

Please put the "Person" option back under FamilyTree. This is extremely helpful when helping someone locate their own Details Page. Having to go through a list is not at all helpful. I don't think this is a improvement.

    This is a really bad change. Instead of the option to view a Person from the Family Tree drop-down menu, it is now "Person List." This is NOT the same type of feature! We need to easily be able to find ourselves or the last person we were on. Don't make us go to "Options" and select the filters to find who we are looking for. This will be very frustrating and upsetting to guests. PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK or add "Person List" as an additional feature, but give us "PERSON" back again. Please.

    Today is the first time I have ever seen "PERSON" in the Family Tree Dropdown. BUT, it seems to only work for the living.

    Please allow PERSON to work for anyone in your tree, living or deceased.

    "Anyone in your tree, living or deceased" would potentially include millions of people. It would not be practical to have them in a dropdown list.

    Person in the FamilySearch Tree menu, takes you directly to the last viewed person's details page. On a fresh login, that will be yourself, but there are other ways to get to your Home person.

    Your Home person is always at the top of the Recents menu drop-down. Clicking it will take you to your home person's details page, same as the Person link does.

    You can also click on the Home button to return your Home Person to the center of your tree, in whatever view you are in:

    Are either of these adequate to replace the Person link in the original FamilySearch Tree menu? They both exist in FamilySearch tree as well as in the Family Group Trees.

    Hello all, You will note that the Person link at the top of all of the pedigree views has been removed, in favor of the Home person listed at the top of the Recents drop-down menu. If you click on the person's name, it will open their Person Page. If you click on the Tree link to the right of the name, it will take you to them in the same pedigree view that you are currently using. Don't forget the Home button on the pedigree view as well:
