I'm not seeking more attention or points of view, and I have no real 
wish to run trunk.  I just thought it worth encouraging ziggy to put his 
patches in the public domain.  Perhaps the wiki would have been a better 
place than a ticket.

My initial problem was in reading the Watch Recordings screen with some 
content-based backgrounds.  An early patch on this list fixed that.  The 
first file I had from ziggy wrapped just one of the screen lists.  The 
newer one wraps both, and yes, circular lists can be confusing.

Cheers,

John
