I like them in general, but I have some reservations.

   1. They still seem pretty big (i.e. not very "tight", as Mark put it). I
   already find many of the controls on those screenshots to be quite large,
   and everything starts adding up to eat up our screen space.
   2. Do we need them to be shaded? Status bars will be displaying on
   screens that are relatively busy already; Chrome's status bar overlays are a
   solid colour with no frills.
   3. Do we need the icon? What purpose does it serve? Is there some other
   way we can provide this functionality without adding them to the status
   bars?
   4. Could we see some mockups with the status bar displaying outside the
   window border? I have run into this situation in Chrome on OS X and Windows
   before under certain circumstances, and frankly I prefer it to in-window
   overlays. Of course if the window is near or at the bottom of the screen, we
   would move the overlay up into the window as required.

Looking good!
