I find it too cluttered - the tag display before tag-used-indicators came along was almost perfect - very clean and informative. Now it has gone too far in the eye-candy direction, in my opinion. Pretty, but it detracts from function. What about a plain over-bar for tag-used? Better than my original thought of an underline, in that the underline tends to blend with the border, but an overbar stands out against the screen-edge. Mostly I don't care a lot about tag-used indicators - they're just sometimes-useful instead of continually-useful. For the bulk of the time, I don't care whether a non-selected tag is used or not - I just want a subtle confirmation of whether a non-visible window has closed or opened yet. What I mean to say is that I do like having them, but I want them to be subtle. :-) Karl.
