:-(, I actually liked the previous one better as it was more balanced. But I
don't really like the both - maybe the latter would be ok, but its current
proportions make me cringe.

Dani, one more thing: I understand the coloring, but would it be possible
make "close" buttons without coloring? I mean, make them monochrome, just
like the IM status in the panel bar? Maybe even make the squares with round
edges, to differentiate?

Btw, red wheel in the panel could mean an error during operation (which in
turn could be shown on click).

Otherwise, a really amazing work!
