Controls should not be invisible, should be semi-opaque.

It would be much easier for new users to Feng Office to be able to see all the available controls on-screen.

Currently, you don't know you can edit or complete a task, and you don't know you can move a custom property up/down or delete it until you happen to mouse over that particular object.

It would be much easier for new users if those controls were mostly transparent but still visible until moused over.  That way they would understand they are there and they would now what they can do with an object, but they would not be distracted by too much on-screen text or controls.

I hope this is a simple CSS change, but I am not a CSS guru. :(

I'm not too fond of the disappearing controls either. Definitely something on the wishlist.
