I'm gonna suggest wt --version? The new tab flyout could get very busy very fast.

The settings window would make the most sense for this, once they add a GUI for editing profiles and colours etc

Well, once _we_ add a GUI for editing profiles. For the 0.2 milestone, it'll probably live in the menu and be generally inert.

I think putting it in settings (and not in an about dialog) would make a lot of sense

@mdtauk we are in agreement, but we probably aren鈥檛 getting a whole settings UI in the next two weeks. I鈥檝e seen this design in a number of places; would it help for us to have a consolidated design discussion thread instead of using every issue as one?

Ah ok, so if its needed for an initial store release, you could put it in the flyout with the profiles listed?

Yep! I know it鈥檚 less than ideal :)

Change logs and Version numbers should be contained within a settings dialog

Yes. Thank you.

Just to set some context, we're talking about _0.2_ here, not _1.0_
