I think Mail and Xcode places it there, but I'm also preferring to have 
it at the bottom, also for decorative/aesthetic purposes, since there 
are tabs at the top, and nothing at the bottom, and now there's even 
both tabs and a status bar at the top, and maybe soon there'll be a 
tool bar, so it gets a bit heavy on the top...

So yeah, it'll probably be configurable where to place it -- though I'm 
not sure how good the "table view header"-background works in the 
bottom of the screen. Maybe we need another background for when it's 
down there.

Ah, then it's just a question of unlearning old habits! ;)

At least the status bar will see many improvements and lots of new 
added info, some of it clickable... but this currently isn't my main 
priority!


Kind regards Allan
