ok, let me be clear about this.
there won't be any revert.

all the changes were discussed and toroughly reviewed. It's unfortunate that 
you didn't participate in it and yes, it's also unfortunate that we didn't 
contact you.

when the rewrite started, that applet was effectively abandoned and bitrotting 
since at least two years, as unfortunately are many other applets in 
kdeplasma-addons, and this requires an action (other addons plasmoids will 
soon share the same fate)

about the 2.0 you have in mind, the current design well fits in the global 
style (simple display of information that cuts useless graphic elements to the 
minimum) that is the style the default plasmoids should have.

However, if you want something different, you are more than welcome and 
encouraged to work on another plasmoid (and then using the same review process 
that was used in this case)

Cheers,
