I think changing the background is a non starter since users can change the background already anyway. An emblem is good for the case where you are looking from "above" a dataset that is tagged for backup. An indicator in the status bar is good for when you are "in" a dataset that is tagged for backup. -- Darren J Moffat _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
