Personally I do think that Amarok 2's current header takes up too much
verticle space and isn't really being used enough. One idea that
xatax's copyright infringement/mockup brought to mind is that perhaps
we could show status information in the header. Scan, download status,
what's currently playing. Then we wouldn't have to have a status bar.
