Todd,
That's a good point you make here. I swear I never realized what such icon
was about.
But speaking of icons, I intend to file 2 additional usability bugs that I
have not mentioned yet. One of them was even discovered by a friend of
mine who came at home to help me use the USB drive and USB key ... because
I could not figure out how to use USB drive and a USB key because of the
tooltip messages I was seeing. He also did not realize what such icon was
about; like me, he was trusting the tooltip message he was seeing until we
just couldn't see anything else than to try such icon.
