Gradient editing is pretty much marginalized in Photoshop by the fact it's so hard to get to. Plus the completely unnecessary dichotomy of gradient fill vs. "Gradient Overlay".
What bothers me the most about Photoshop is that each version seems to have fewer features than the last. Sure, sure, more marketroid features, but did you know that between Photoshop 7 and Photoshop CS, they completely eliminated the ability to save a 32-bit .TGA file?
It's like the world's simplest image format (you know when Linden Lab (http://secondlife.com/) picks it as the only supported texture format, it's got to be so simple a dog could implement it)... excised for no discernable reason.
Other than a "fuck you, we can make Photoshop do whatever we want" message.
