hey lee---

given that the new current applet looks so spiffy, it would be super awesome if 
you had any ideas about the other applets. we don't have a lot of latitude 
with the lyrics/wiki applets for example, because they need to embed a 
rectangular text/info box, but maybe the headers/colors/backgrounds could fit a 
bit better with the blue toolbar and the new current track applet?

(i know we're in freeze for 2.1, but if/when you have any time i'll gladly 
work with you to get something working in a local branch, artwork takes a 
while to get right due to its inherent iterative improvement cycle)

cheers,
leo
