Yeah, i'm perfectly aware of this... confusing users about UI is the worst
error one could do. That's why i post this patch only for people tracking
svn, who want to give a try to it, and see if they like this 'new look'.
It's only a small detail, but i like it :)
And i don't do a personal affair about this btw :)

With raleigh (default theme here, only this one and clearlooks-* available),
it looks like a handle. Nothing more...
