yes, this shifting of the icons on the notification bar is really
distracting and annoying :( would be much better if the names/descriptions
would just hover on top of the icons when you move the mouse over them.
i'm also still not getting the hang of this notification bar. okay, they
wanted to separate the sytem icons from the notifications, but why do they
need to separate them from the running applications? wouldn't it be better
if the dash gave place to such notifications? then thy could be grouped with
the apps they belong to, or just be separate icons (like a weather app, or
system monitor, etc). and then you also wouldn't really need so many bars
all around the screen, just a top panel for the system thingies, and a
sidebar/bottom bar for the apps and notifications. would make the gui even
simpler and cleaner imho.
