 * 1) The new customize option is nice, would be good if a link is added to the 
   admin bar of wordpress, so that the user would get a nice experience of customizing
   it in the frontend.
    2) Also, after saving the customize options, it would be
   good if it redirects to site rather than to the theme settings page. 3) Layout
   options are missing in the customize settings. 4) cropping settings are not available,
   as a result the whole image gets displayed( trying uploading a image for header).

 * The THEME customize options? 🙂
 * These aren’t meant to get everything at once, there’s no enough real estate for
   that, so some settings will remain ‘advanced’ shall we say.

 * 1) That is a good idea. Thanks!
 * 2) We would never take someone out of the dashboard without them explicitly clicking
   a link intended to do so.
 * 3) By layout options do you mean theme options screen? Not every screen is in
   the customizer by default, and it will be up to each theme to decide what options
   to add.
 * 4) Yeah, the header section seems fairly broken. Hopefully we can fix all the
   issues (it also doesn’t remember which images are already uploaded) during beta,
   but as [@ipstenu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) said, this is
   really a v1 of this feature, and the full management screens are much better 
   suited to things like full image editing.

 * Thanks jane,
    2) my point is in accordance with the first option, when user clicks
   it from front end, after saving the option he should be redirected to the front
   end. 3) At-least we can do it for Theme 2011 | **Appearance** -> Theme options-
   > default layout( Content on left , Content on right … etc )
 * More features, cant wait to see that !!!!

 * Hi ezhil,
 * We’ve added a Customize link into the toolbar. You’re right about redirecting
   back to the front-end, but at this stage, that likely won’t make it in until 
   3.5.
 * We’ve also integrated Twenty Eleven’s theme options into the customizer, so you
   should be able to change the layout options, color scheme, and link colors in
   3.4 as well.
 * Image handling is still very basic — hopefully that’s another area that will 
   see some improvements come 3.5.
