I noticed that too and plan to fix it and maybe change title color or
mark popups with their level somehow (ideas btw?). Anyway, you
described good test cases that I'll consider while doing the work.

sure. I'll rework this and some ui bits of popup at least.

since you're the sole user of "box" feature, do you really want to

with different content).
