I don't like it that much either, if that helps you :-)
The look really doesn't fit to our usual style, and even if you take 
its target (the desktop/replicant) into account, it shouldn't look like 
this in its typical non-replicant look.
With this being fixed/changed, and some other extensions like the 
function popup, and base conversion, this could really become a nice 
little app, though.
