    Hate the gradient tool in Illustrator.

    Depending where you hover over gradient adjustment line thing, the mouse cursor changes from being able to rotate it, add colours to it, move it, move colours. And when you get close to it suddenly changes from a thin line to a line showing the gradient.

    It's such a visual mental trip with everything quickly changing state while you try to get the right tool to show - such as rotate. It's mouse gymnastics.

    Just give us a stable tool - two dots with a line between them. Something simple. No hover effects. No adjust the gradient there, we have the gradient tool window for that. Improve that too, make it like the one in Freehand. That was a lot more logical.
