Cataclysm Beta: User Interface Revamp!

There is no doubt that WoW has had one of the best user interfaces in RPG games to date. Its easy to use and pretty clean, and infinitely customizable with addons. But its also getting pretty dated, and Blizzard has struggled to add new gameplay elements into the existing UI, so things like dual-specing, Glyphs, and raid and dungeon browsers seem sort of tacked on.

Well, given the huge changes coming to the in-game world in Cataclysm, it looks like Bliz took the change to blow up and rebuild a lot of the User Interface windows too. Professions are getting their own tab, the spellbook is updated to show much more info, the minimap can now track multiple things (or everything!) at once, and much more.
