Wow, i never noticed that. For some reason it wasnt located there on my
desktop, but i checked with a fresh account and you are right. Using it
that way is more comfortable.

"not lagging behind", is not exactly what i aspire.

Isnt the darker bottom of the cylinder the problem. Because of the dark
ring it looks like something nearly empty.
And do you know duracell-batteries? They have this darker ring too, but
on the upper side.
