The nicer requests do seem to make it in within a patch or two.

That's not quite true. For example, polite requests for the ability to use arrow keys for scrolling, and some sort of indicator for who you're at war with, have been made by numerous people for many months, yet we've not seen these requests acted upon (yet). Many other requests have been implemented, but they are mostly those that do not involve UI changes (even minor ones) or that have an overwhelming number of people clamoring for them. The devs themselves admit that any change that involves the UI is less likely to be acted upon than, say, adding a mod command (no matter how nicely someone asks for it).

Nobody, but nobody, enjoys writing UI code* Even fewer enjoy changing it or rewriting it except in the direst circumstances with the clearest benefits.
* Counterexamples are rumoured to exist, but until an actual sighting has been made they will be assumed non-existent.
