Oh, I didn't notice the issue tracker, silly of me! I've filed issues as follows: - 316 - Pulse Growl Menubar Widget With Unread History - 317 - Option to Hide Menubar Widget Unless Required - 318 - Synergistic Rollup Behaviour
Hopefully they're well-described enough! I separated menubar widget hiding and pulsing as I think they can exist well separately since the hiding issue may require a bit more work anyway.
