After recent upgrade to 10.7.4, from 10.7.3, I had to unhide the ~/Library again...


This is well known...
and is the one I used.

That's a really dumb trend that Apple's embarking on.

No it's not.

Hardly anybody needs to access Library folders on a regular basis, and those that do can create aliases or unhide the whole folder.

Which is what I do...

My main uses, which I visit quite often...

Via alias's usually.
(My ~/Library folder is also unhidden)

Favorites copy & paste to another folder for backup.

Camino Bookmarks and History copy & paste backups
History especially, after losing it a while back, Bookmarks also exported.

Occasional software removal requires manual removal of some items in ~/Library folder, as directed by the software.
