Hi everyone, just another "comment". The strange behavior you are talking about is based on a usability fundamental.
Wikipedia (link below) explains: "Edges and corners of the computer display (e.g., Start button in Microsoft Windows and the menus and Dock of Mac OS X) are particularly easy to acquire because the pointer remains at the screen edge regardless of how much further the mouse is moved, thus can be considered as having infinite width." Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts%27s_law The member fubarbundy explained that very well. So if you want to fix this behavior, then I affirm to: a) improve the mouse-over highlighting b) increase the size of the often-used close button in any case (might be another issue, but it is an issue) Both a) and b) are solved very well in the "New Wave" theme (in terms of behavior, please do not only think in visual design). @ Tammer Ibrahim: I just noticed that Fitt's Law had already been mentioned in the thread you linked to.
