This patch is not usable, and I've talked a lot with the
author on email about getting separate patches. Rejecting this.

I tried it. There are some things i like about it, and some i
don't. The tetris graphical changes i don't like. The f1 =
sound menu i found awarkard since it usually goes to menu
(i changed it in "my version" of rbox). The channel settings
as a slider is really weird. Insted of having sliders as a
seperate menu, i like them kinda like the archos firmware.
Now about the good things. I liked the way you browsed
directories, and where selected stuff is invert, and the new
icons look good. The status bar stands out more, but the
scale is a bit weird for volume. Thanks for the patch.

Thanks a lot for your hard and serious effort.

I cannot accept/apply the full patch, it is just not gonna
incorporate well in Rockbox and I'll tell you why:

1. You assume specific font sizes
2. You do not add new things properly optional
3. You add things I cannot see is subject for doing right now

(and btw, code formatting does not permit tabs in the source)

What would like to ask you to do:

1. Make a separate patch with the "Inverted video cursor
line" feature (optional)
2. Make a separate patch for the "tetris graphics" fix
3. Make a separate patch for the "sound sliders" fix

The faster keyscanning needs more research to see if this
affects performance, especially together with the inverted
cursor line and high bit-rate mp3 songs.

The function-key modifications need more discussions, and I
personally am not convinced of the greatness of your approach.

Again, thanks a lot for your work.
