It means that the provider crashed. There will be actually two improvements on this: Providers will be much more stable when bugs are fixed, and if some provider still crashed a subscriber (the application) will restart the provider and resubscribe transparently all feeds it had open before the provider crashed. (Mauku and Microfeed backend are separate processes.)

This is actually against HIG, but I like the idea. An option in the AppMenu could be for advanced users, when the main window is still there for beginners.

I was planning to implement search in a separate window, but I like your idea too. Let's see what happens.

Integration with the camera is not yet planned. However, viewing pictures in tweets is planned, but I am not yet sure when it lands.

Known in issue in beta. Will be fixed in the next version.

Thanks for your comments and ideas.
