yes, and for the same reason that making kicker a passive popup would be inane: they aren't items that you open and then do other work with them still open for reference. for the calendar, a common use case is to pop it open and go back to an email or a web page or an IM conversation and continue working while referencing the information in the calendar. when do you open the battery informatin and then continue to do work that relies on that information being visible? having to click on the clock to close the calendar is an annoyance outweighed by the use case benefits. i see no similar use case for the battery, the device notifier, kickoff, etc. > It would allow the Battery applet Power Management extender to look > like the Calendar extender of the Digital Clock applet (no one pixel gap > between extender and panel), as well as have similar behaviour. the one pixel gap sounds like an inconsistency that needs to be tracked down and fixed. addressing a bug by throwing some random other option at it that just happens to do what we want isn't a good way of dealing with things ;) -- Aaron J.
