Comment 206 for bug 527458

treviňo and matthew, what exactly did you mean by clicking? unconsistency of the animation of the sliding icons, or collision with the fading part of the window title? well, it is a difficult question, I am not a developer... but I really can imagine it to work. however, the second idea treviňo gave is not good for me, we are trying to use space in the most efficient way, so imagine that u have to look on the icon just to be able to hit it with the pointer and then u have to look somewhere else. it is not logical to have the info so far away form the icon it belongs to, clicking or no clicking, the first idea is still something to consider. there has been many suggestions, but when I read the one with sliding icons, I could imagine it right away, which is not true about any other here.
