I really don't want to see the "right-click to close window" reinstated. One of my main annoyances with the Dominions 1 interface was the "right-click to get info only to be a single pixel off and close the window instead" phenomena.

Heh, and one of my main annoyances was trying to close the window, being a few pixels off and opening the info panel....

To each their own eh?

Another one I've noticed is that if you have a group of commanders selected, and attempt a 2-Province move, it is possible that some, but not all, will be able to move that far. The problem is, the others stay put, and there is no clear visual cue of this (I assume they have "Defend" as their order, but they should deselect, or something, so you can notice this).

If their highlight turned red instead of white when ordered to do something illegal, that would be a helpful clue.
