Cruftalicious

Allen rightly points out that graying out icons as per my previous entry would violate UI guidelines ten ways from Sunday. I was actually thinking about the little triangle indicators but completely failed to elucidate this. The thought came after noticing how they fade away as an application quits: instead they would fade out extremely slowly, like on the order of minutes. But certainly not the icons themselves. That would just be silly.
