Well, it could be... but I was looking at Conboy's sources and I couldn't
see any obvious difference between it's interface setup and the (silly)

So why does he-fullscreen-button is semi transparent in Conboy'fullscreen
mode and not in my example?
I feel like I'm missing something really obvious here :-) !
