Hmm. Yeah I can see how you can do it with less. (Two less if it's 3d). I
also used a seperate caption layer which made it possible to control the
exact location of the text (inner padding). I also shift it a pixel when
changing from a normal to raised or inset. I used the CoreButton and
CoreToolbar as a starting point which has a lot of these techniques.
