If you don't think this is constructive criticism, don't ever build a product in a space largely influenced by engineers. You need thick skin to be a PM and get feedback from engineers.
Adobe could be learning a ton about their product from this response. If they say to themselves, "Those Developers just want to say, 'See, I told you! damn Adobe!'", they will have wasted a major opportunity to better their product.
Their target market is obviously not developers, and there is a lot of feedback here i would just chuck as interesting but meaningless to the product. There is some, though, that will directly impact whether an engineer will laugh when his non-tech friend asks about Muse or shrugs and says "It's not perfect, but if your needs are light, it'll work" (just like I was telling my father-in-law Dreamweaver would work for the genealogy stories cd he wants to make for the family).
Adobe needs to get the product to the second place.
