I think Blackbox appeals to a certain type of user. I've tried 'em all and prefer
Blackbox because of what Blackbox is.

However, I can also appreciate how somebody loves the way it is, and would like it
even more if they could just "get this one feature added... only one". :->

Would it be possible for one of the "powers that be" to write up a simple list of what
Blackbox will have, what it might have (if there exists enough interest) and what it
will not have under any circumstances? Or even a voting mechanism such as Everybuddy
has/had for feature requests. That is if the authors agree.

I know there is documentation stating in general terms the goal(s) for Blackbox, but
maybe there needs something more detailed, such as:

  IconBox = No (will never happen)
  Autohide Toolbar = Yes (currently implemented)


Or, maybe I'm just blowing hot air again....
