Unfortunately the slick transparent seek bar had some usability issues
we didn't have time to address before 2.2, so 2.2 will ship with the
old style progress bar.
However, we do realize that the old style progress bar leaves room for
improvement, and we'll try to address your concerns in a future
release.
