Well, it's getting there.

Makes sense although I find it a good idea to prepare for variable sizes
from the beginning - some people have better eyes than others and the
designer will have a hard time to match both with a "one size fits all"
approach. Personally, I found the title bar just too big in general and
would've preferred a smaller one. Others surely will like the larger one (in
particular if you're on an iBook in 1024x768 ;-)

Hey, what do you care about Microsoft? Make it look great and we'll just put
'em out of business (heh, heh ;-)

I entirely agree. But I was seriously *shocked* about how much it affected
my view on Squeak. In the blink of an eye it transformed Squeak from a
creative tool into a straitjacket.
