   True. but don't you have to open the main door to empty the dishwasher?   
   That's when I glance at the window to see if the rinse aid dispenser   
   needs refilling.  If it does, I do it then.  And, at least with every   
   dishwasher I've ever used, the main door also needs to be opened to fill   
   the dish washing detergent compartment before running a wash cycle.
