As far as I'm aware, no. Your hint and his work weren't related (he's been working on this for a while, I believe), we don't even use the window hint you recommended, so I'm not really sure how it could be the same. He doesn't browse itT, anyway.

Really, though, I don't know. You're welcome to ask him directly if you'd like.

Yeah, Benson, I agree. I'm typically the usability tester on these things, so you can lay the blame squarely on my shoulders. One of the internal revisions actually didn't have a "normal" button, and I got myself stuck trying to get it back to normal for a little while. It was probably one of the most frustrating things I've ever experienced. I wanted to go curl up in the corner afterwards, and didn't really have the mental energy into to looking at the fix after rm_you committed it.

The plan was to have the icons be relative to the the current orientation, which they are for the normal orientation, but they don't change for the other directions. Definitely a bug (or, more accurately, an incomplete implementation). I'll poke at it a bit and get jott to look at it in the morning. There've been a couple other bugs fixed in svn already, so we may push another update tomorrow, I guess.
