    CM 10.1 camera opens straight to gallery

    I hate to say it, but go back to 10.0 and wait until they put 10.1 on the official list. I want to switch so bad because of the new camera feature in 4.2, but I'm waiting until the official version is out or at least a stable candidate on the CM site.
