Our "much loved" workflow system has developed yet another fault, courtesy of Telerik RAD controls as it happens. We've been suggesting suitable replacements, which I thought I'd share -

Rejected as cross browser compatible[^] but does replicate the functionality
Replicates the user experience[^]
Emotional Experience[^]
Password Policy[^]
Best Music[^]
Visually closest[^]
or
anything from here really.[^]

I know, and that's the glory of it.

Each one is better written than our internal workflow system. We're trying to get it replaced with JIRA so we don't have to maintain it, but management is in an escalation of commitment anti-pattern.

Generally speaking, I'd agree with you.
