Fair enough.

Yes, most likely.

The visual impact is indeed pretty small in our threat model for this
feature. Also, fixing this likely requires patching the
window-picker-applet. So, I'm not sure we should block on this, even
if it would be great to see it fixed between now and the end of the
month (doesn't sound *that* crazy, does it? a bug should be reported
upstream ASAP, anyway, if we want to have a chance to see it fixed in
time, without writing the patch ourselves).

Cheers,
