Biggest windbg pet peeve

What is your biggest pet peeve related to the windbg debugger from microsoft? (note: I actually really like windbg if I ignore the unpolished UI.)

The ridiculous behavior when you attempt to use click-drag to select text on a line that is wider than its physical window. The pieces of the history window that I need to copy/paste into bug reports are frequently wider than the physical window.

I've gotten so used to the triple-click workaround that I find myself attempting to misuse triple click in other (well behaved) applications.

Key presses are ignored while the focus is in a source window.

It's not like you can edit the source code from inside windbg.

At least there's the Alt-1 workaround.

How insanely slow .kdfiles copies new binaries across the 1394 connection.

It can take up to one minute for a large dll.

Attempting to dock a window is almost always the wrong kind of dock the first time until :I move the mouse just right.

Why can't it have the docking cues that VS2008 has?
