Having to learn and having to read a manual are 2 things, 
not necessarily connected.

I like interfaces I can learn to use by exploration.
I don't mind having to learn new things, if there's something 
to be gained from, and  expect many people to see this the 
same way.

I don't mind having to read documentation to learn how to 
uv map a polygon model in some 3d app because of the inherent 
complexity. But a single widget is a different story.
