I like the new VIews UI. Some things are hard to find... One of the mis:
In old UI I could expose the form of the 'Default display'. In the new UI, there is no checkbox 'Exposed form in block:Yes' for the 'master display'.
I use the exposed master, because I have 3 displays of 1 View on the same page. Only the exposed master filter form communicates the filters among the displays.

Its presence in the master display was a bug. Having exposed forms from views with no actual path caused a duplication of exposed form blocks and could cause invalid exposed form blocks to be created. While it is moderately inconvenient, this setting now appears only on displays that have a path field.

Title: new VIews UI: 'Exposed form in block' option is gone for default/master display » New Views UI: 'Exposed form in block' option is gone for default/master display

i've been thinking about this... I think it is/was a valuable feature, and people activate this on purpose, so have ample time to test is conifguration.
Can you propose an alternative way for my use case?
Please enable this again, or provide a hint/patch to do it.

Having displays that do not have a path with the exposed filter block is invalid.

Setting that once and having multiple displays show up as blocks because you set the default is messy.

The only inconvenience is that you can't set it from the master display; you must deliberately set it from the displays that use it.

I'll test some more. It seems that the different display-filter-blocks DO communicate their settings, which was not the case some months ago.

What if someone wanted to have an exposed form in a block on one page that posts to the views page? Is this not possible now? If you turn AJAX off, it removes the exposed forms completely (the theory is the block form would submit to the page). This shouldn't cause errors. Is there an easier way to achieve this that I am missing?

Needs review means that there is a patch ...
I guess http://drupal.org/node/1433362 would give what you need
