Re: some comments on the gutter

What about putting the mode-line in the gutter? Or to be more
specific, breaking the mode-line into a window-oriented mode-line
and a frame-oriented status-bar?
Yes. Put the usually invisible major and minor modes as buttons in
the gutter. That idea I like. I *really* want to see the Major and
Minor modes in effect and it is irritating not to be able to scroll
the mode-line to make them visible there.
