Thanks for the info. This does indeed control the curvature meshing, but 
at the smallest value it is still much finer that I need. Setting 
MinimumCirclePoints to fractional values less than 1 seems to disable the 
curvature meshing. With 

Mesh.MinimumCirclePoints = 1;

about 24 edges per 90 degrees of a circle is generated, whereas I'd like 
to be able to adjust it from say 5 edges per 90 degrees or so. Can this 
be done?

Thanks! I think this is better than the old UI, I just didn't find it the 
first time I looked :)
