Awesome. :D

My only things with the status icon are:

(1) Perhaps a "we will return at" clock would be better? (Like this:  
<http://office-supplies.us.com/images_products/48632_big.gif> )
(2) I still keep thinking those green things on the ground are  
leaves. I'm not sure that anything about this can be done at current  
resolution (besides changing the color), but perhaps we should have  
high-resolution versions, at least for the future? I imagine a  
128×128 288dpi version long into the next generation of displays.

Also, feature idea: Change all the Duck icons to some other Duck  
color depending on the user's selected Dock icon. We could add a key  
to the Dock icon format (if there isn't one already) that specifies  
its Duck color as a hue angle (0=red, as usual), then use some Core  
Image magic to munge all the toolbar icons accordingly.

Point.
