What happened to the mini interface in 1P8?

I've used 1Password and subsequent upgrades since its inception. Today I downgraded back to 1Password7. I really, really dislike v8. What have you done to the interface. It is too busy to be convenient to use and takes up too much room on the screen!! It's bad enough on a large monitor where I typically keep multiple windows open. It's especially annoying on a phone or tablet. It is no improvement over the streamlined, clean, minimalist interface of v7. I depend on 7's mini and depending on being able to pin a search result to the screen when using a browser instead of adding the browser extension.
