[UI] [Patch] Volume "dial"...

I've rethought a couple of things (even after the other thread)

Of course there (imo) good reasons for such approach, but i'll explain them 
later - first you should try out (best w/o reading the code - i promise, it 
contains very few trojans ;-) and check for usability.

a) "do i get it"
b) "can i handle it"

Otherwise it's visually a "bit rough on the corners", ie. could need two more 
icons to finegrain/stress state representation and maybe some nice animations 
=)
also i don't like the invocation of un/mute strings (since they can be 
horribly long as verbs in some langs) ... and the tooltip on value changes 
(using the dial!) sometimes works and sometimes not .. due to the wonders of 
tooltip land =\

ok: that's enough info for the moment.

Cheers
Thomas

ps: patch size defers from default_theme_clean.svg update, sorry :(
