Thanks for you idea! I think you have a point in the sense that the permanent
overlays can interfere with the image.

That's not quite true for non-fullscreen: The "bird's eye view" also hides
after a timeout. Also, the issue with the buttons would continue to exist in
non-fullscreen, wouldn't it?

How about making this a hover button like in Browse mode? This would solve it
consistently both for fullscreen and non-fullscreen, and you would only ever
see a single button at a time on the screen. The
"hide-everything-on-mouse-timeout" behaviour feels a bit weird to me. It's fine
for single elements, but not so great for the whole UI.

Short testing shows that at the bottom of the screen in fullscreen there is a
narrow zone where clicking does not activate any of the images, so perhaps this
way you could even hide all hover controls (in case they are implemented) at
the same time.

I'd consider the hover button idea worth a try at least, but not sure when
we'll get around to it.

I agree, the former maintainer did a really great job ;)
