Comment 13 for bug 527458

Less is more? By adding clicks to get necessary information? example: transmission to get information on up/down byte count. By scrolling the mouse up/down to adjust volume?

I'm thinking that the law of unintended consequences is rearing its ugly head here.

By thinking "less is more", you've added complexity to what WAS simple and very convenient. Personally I'm not thrilled about this change at all, but as a linux user, I'll just dump the gnome panel for the Avant window manager which has excellent tool tip support.

My 2 cents as I was a bug reporter on the transmission information loss with this "simplification".
