You are correct though, between the vanity, door, and the stainless cover plates it's a lot of cleaning, but whats 10 minutes extra of cleaning/week? It's just glass.
Functionality was the wrong word if it is in your master. Cleaniness would be- Just like a black car, it looks incredible when it's new, but if not maintained properly can quickly turn to looking like crap.
The majority of doors we install look wonderful when we first install them, but nine out of ten households fail at cleaning them properly. Soap scum and hard water stains can destroy the glass if it's not cleaned almost of the daily (depending on use).
Being that you did on the labor, I'm sure you will take more pride in it then the majority of people who just call and pay for it. I really love the style and design though, it really does look good.

And remember everyone takes showers differently, what may not leak for one can leak for everyone else if the stall is installed incorrect. I spent 2 hours trying to please a homeowner yesterday. Some people just can't understand the flow and movement of water... but they expect air and a prayer to keep all droplets in the stall.
