I discussed this with notmart already. The code isn't used at the moment and notmart said it will not be used in the future. So removed it as the calucaltions where wrong and why correct a not used code?. For the planed rewrite for 4.6 I can reintroduce this in a clean way. No Problem.
But as we are on this, one question: Should there be a seperator in case right easment is used? I would do it, as the background would change to (if the theme has one...)
