None of these are showstoppers, but there are a handful of annoyances in the UI which, while compliant with Fluent UI, add a lot of extra clicks, waiting, and frustration (in my subjective opinion).
Slow tooltips
It takes a long time to see what all my options on a distro are. Though the chosen icons are as intuitive as they can be, 90% of the time, I'm still going to confirm via a label that a button does what I think the icon suggests it does before I click it, especially with something as important as WSL distros. This could be mitigated by showing tooltips instantly on hover rather than a resetting delay.
Every setting hidden behind a collapsed expander
This makes it a time-consuming task to see what all the settings are. I personally think nothing is gained by putting these in expanders rather than simply under well-spaced subheaders, but if they must be expanders, then having them auto-expanded by default or at least providing "expand all" and "collapse all" buttons would take away the headache.
Too much space being taken up by the NavigationView
This one's definitely a nitpick, but still worth mentioning. Annoying sidebar nav behavior seems to be an in-built hallmark of WinUI apps, and the fluent_ui Flutter library's default behavior is no exception. Perhaps the width of the expanded nav view can simply be reduced?
