You've got some time to draft it, I don't think a satisfactory version of
clutter (2.0?) will be out until 13.04.

Talk to tom95 or ricotz for more details.

But it would at least make me feel better if Audience's control bar were a
granite widget of some form.

Yea I think some kind of overlay widget could probably be helpful for media
apps. We should probably make a list of apps that already have something
similar and try to find a common ground.

Also, for every time you link to Google+, I'm going to reach through the
Internet and slap you. Because its extremely painful to redirect through
and it's extremely mobile unfriendly.

I've been looking at some UI paradigms lately, and one I see used
frequently is some sort of transient bar used when viewing visually-rich
content. Take out your mobile platform of choice. View a video. See that
bar that has some controls on it? That's what I'm talking about.

We already have a similar UI element being used in Audience. I was
wondering if it would make sense to reuse this widget in other apps. Harvey
made a mockup of a slick little image viewer that used a similar UI
element: http://goo.gl/IGAxf. Even if it's not proposed for Granite, I
think making this a prepackaged widget could be really useful; we could
predetermine some of the look and behavior (exact transparency, timing and
animation for the slide-out/in, showing for a few seconds then sliding
away, etc.).

What are your thoughts?
