Oh, thanks for looking into this. As you see I hadn't yet managed to
do so myself. Thanks for (effectively) prodding and also for clearing
away the `how to start hacking on this' yak which I was slightly stuck
on.)

I think this is an improvement.
IMO though the light weight of the font is the biggest problem.
I took what you had and messed about with it and discovered that I was
able to make the new tracker look much more like the old tracker with
some very simple further changes to the style.css:

Subject: [PATCH] Denser use of screen space
Override some bootstrap-provided defaults:
* Switch default font. "Helvetica Neue" is very light. These other
fonts are heavier. This is more readable at any particular font
size.
* Use black writing rather than dark grey writing.
* Use a slightly darker shade of blue for links.
* Set the font size to 100% of the user's requested size.
(Why would you ever set this to something else for ordinary
body text?!)
* Set the line-height to 1. This gets a lot more info on
the screen at any particular font size.
