Hi!

I have now updated my patch to the release-0-21-fixes branch (svn
revision: 16236). It now switches between automatically between the
fill modes "Full" and "Off".

If this patch is a candidate to go into a future release I could make
it possible to turn the auto detection on and off from the playback
settings.
