IIRC, the plan for BControlLook was to make it replaceable like
decorators. A rounded version might be a good way to experiment with
that. I'm not sure I'd make it a default, but maybe some people that
keep saying the UI looks "dated" would like it. Seems round stuff is
what's modern in the 2000s (unless Windows 8 makes square look modern
again ;))
I see some graphic improvements are possible, too :
* The shadow under 'probe device' is not rounded, which looks bad
* To me, these buttons look either very flat or like they are already
pressed. Maybe it's a problem with the border color, or ?
* At bottom right of 7 in deskcalc, there are some pixels missing ?
