EN 7 supported the built in MacOS Services menu within the app, but it is missing in EN 10. Please bring it back.
Why: The Services Menu is a simple way to integrate system wide services with Evernote, such as Dictionary Lookup, search with Google, etc. but also user installed Services, such as the WordServices package from Devonthink with lots of text cleanup functions, texts statistics (word count, etc), and many other useful integrations. It is even possible to wrap Applescripts and Automator actions as Services. Furthermore, all Services can be assigned a keyboard shortcut for even easier use. All these posssibilities are gone from this version.
While I also lament the missing Applescript support, I think this would be a much simpler way to implement some measure of system integration.
Of note, I am not talking about adding an Evernote Service available for other apps, but of the addition of Services as a submenu under the Evernote app menu, optimally also as a contextual menu. A Send to Evernote Service available for other apps would of course also be beneficial.
I am beginning to find 10 quite useful in terms of performance, but it is still lacking what I see as basic MacOS support.
