New (2020) merge process needs work, the old one worked better

Also the floating "Merge Completed - Undo" element causes problems, when it appears or disappears, it can close the popup that you are looking at. Also the text box for typing in the reason for the merge is very slow, the typing lags a couple seconds. I feel that the old version of merge was better.

I don't think anyone will argue with you that the new system needs some serious work.

There is a good discussion about several of the issues that you may want to read and then contribute to. https://getsatisfaction.com/familysea...

When you post any issue(s), they need to be in their own thread. The one that I pointed to has several issues and they've been acknowledged.

Because there are a lot of discussion threads surrounding the new format/process, and hopefully, they will all be resolved fairly quickly.
