Hi Travis,

Would it make sense to dedicate some part of this next release cycle  
to overall visual polish? I think it's more efficient if you, Jeffrey  
and I can iterate on polish rather than me trying to specify  
everything ahead of time. I'm also happy to tweak the css myself  
(assuming it's in a state where the likelihood of me messing up code  
is low ;)

I've updated the bug with a laundry list of visual polish issues to  
consider:
