Thanks a lot for that feedback!

I think I'm kind of "abusing" the slimserver's possibilities to display
strings in the four corners. Internally (in the code) the right hand
corners are often referenced to as "overlay" - they were basically used
to display a symbol like the note or an arrow where scrolling is
possible. The plugin's using them to display any string you want.

And IMHO there's even no scrolling code available for any other than the
bottom left corner (triode may correct me :-)). Again the first line was
thought to display eg. the menu level, while the second would contain
the actual, more interesting data.

For these reasons the plugin has relatively small control over how the
strings are displayed. It just feeds the four corner's variables with
the values and leaves the "correct" display to the display handling
routine.
