As long as you keep the quick links in, I'll be happy.

Otherwise, I tend to use forward/back, but it does suck sometimes when exiting out of the trade screen. Pressing back to get back to where I was always seems to take a while, since I use the "make this work now", and the back keeps going back to my previous deals and trying to make them work. Even if that was cached better, that would be nice (so it wouldn't have to keep recalculating each time).

But overall, it'd be nice to have a customizable sim interface. I always like seeing how my hitters and pitchers are doing, so even if a little box at the bottom of the screen kept refreshing every day with a "who's hot" and "who's cold" for my players, then I could see at a glance what I need to change in my lineup. And it'd be nice to throw on a box that keeps my most recent line score, so that I can see quickly whether my team won the last game 12-2 or 4-3.

Although I guess that last point is getting away from navigation, but in general, quick links are good. There's a reason web browsers are moving towards the bookmarks toolbar type stuff a bit more, and why Word and Excel went to those funky buttons at the top instead of everything being in menus.
