Who turned the lights off?
When I first tried MapTool 1.2 I found the templates a bit limited and disappointing (can't move them once they are placed, and they act essentially as drawing objects). However, I quickly found a workaround by making a bunch of markers that I could set the "light" on, creating circles and...

Keep 'em separated
While I agree that a common filetype / format is a great boon for custom rulesets, I support keeping the tools as separate programs that communicate to each other.
