Do yall want this panelbar?

Ok, here's the deal... I've had an asp.net PanelBar control ( like the outlook sidebar ) "done" for a VERY long time. The problem is that the design-time experience is horrible. The templates don't seem to work... various properties seem to disapear randomly... but only in visual designers of vstudio or webmatrix.

The question is... should I release it in it's current state? The only reason I'd consider releasing it is because the problems only exist in the designer. It's perfectly usable be everybody who doesn't use a designer.

(Note, the example page I have there currently isn't sending down the client script that would avoid page postbacks for changing the selected item, this is because I'm lazy and haven't gotten around to flipping that boolean )
