Noticed two with CSS (formatting of slide header and applying slideshow
at the start) but as clear case of bug didn't bother with posting
to this list about that one. But if you want to know another one check
behavior of bullets in list with incremental highlighting - try both to
move forward and backward through the list starting from neighbouring
slides (slide in question is number 9).
