I'll admit the key pie menu wasn't as stable as I had liked it to have
been. I've done quite a bit to fix this in the upcoming version.
There's been quite a bit of changes made and I'm more than ready to
release, I just have this one UI think holding me up at this point.

Thanks for the feedback, it's very much appreciated!
