Have they really removed wireframe preview? Under "Views and previews changes" it says so. Why would they do this? This is one of my most used views when working in 3d space. If I want to move layers around in 3D quickly, I don't want to have to wait for previews.
Some of these changes are bizarre and for the worse.
I think one problem in development is that they use very modern machines, and everyone touching CS5 had to have a new machine. Maybe it was that OpenGL was seen at good enough after all these years since AE5. I don't know.
You might post on the Adobe forum or on Todd Kopriva's blog so that they register you disappointment. If you post here at least your ideas will get into the official system, not just an e-mail folder:
