Apple today seeded the third beta of an upcoming OS X 10.11.4 update to public beta testers, just a few days after releasing the third OS X 10.11.4 beta to developers and more than two weeks after releasing OS X 10.11.3.
The third beta is available through the Software Update mechanism in the Mac App Store for those who are enrolled in Apple's beta testing program. Those wishing to join the program can sign up on Apple's beta testing website.
OS X 10.11.4 appears to focus largely on under-the-hood bug fixes, security enhancements, and performance optimizations with few noticeable outward-facing changes. OS X 10.11.4 offers password protected notes in the Notes app, an import function for importing Evernote notes into the Notes app, and it includes Live Photos support for the Messages app.
Apple is likely to release OS X 10.11.4 in the spring, alongside iOS 9.3, watchOS 2.2, and tvOS 9.2.

* Get rid of root as Apple's effectively given 3rd party developers the finger
* Put in the option to change the green button's behaviour (full screen on a large desktop screen is completely redundant)
* Add option in keyboard commands to have cmd+x and cmd+v act as cut/paste for MOVING files in the Finder
* Fix the way attachments are handled in Mail (christ, a 600 billion dollar company should get this right the first time)
* Add option of folders on top in the Finder
I feel sorry for those who do, but leave me out of it. ;)
