NO! This is exactly the worst thing for anyone trying to switch to Vectorworks.
Firstly, Vectorworks is not AutoCAD; it is impossible to mimic the interface exactly, so users end up frustrated anyway.
Secondly, why imitate a lousy interface, and introduce inefficient ways of working in Vectorworks? Users should learn and use the best way to accomplish each task.

but what about implementing a function which enables VW to reconfigure it's interface so it exactly clones/mimicks those of competing CAD products? i.e. AutoCAD...I have a number of classmates who dislike AutoCAD and it might be easier for them to make the switch if VW could resemble AutoCAD initially and help them to make the transition...
