Here is a patch to create a version of the alternate shelf
theme that works when the shelf is vertical. All it does
is take the alternate version and removes the shine part.
The shine part bands horribly when the shelf is vertical.
Removing it creates a nice gradient with the over part
creating separation for the darker portion of the shelf.
