This report could definitely use some cleaning up of redundant comments, but FWIW the latest round of kvetching was prompted by David announcing that he would reject it even if someone implemented it (Comment 60).

Note that with shading there are other convenient ways that can be configured to activate and deactivate it: a titlebar button, or scrolling up and down. With these, if you just want to quickly peek below the window, it's also relevant that the title bar, or the button in question, stays in the same place. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
