I tried doing this with microGUI today, and found out that it's harder
than it initially appears. You can't move the close button from the
right to the left and have it look right because the title bar is
differently colored on the right from on the left. (And the button is
not partially transparent or anything.) I also noticed that microGUI
uses an awful lot of colors.
So I might wind up sticking with athena-brushed-metal even though I
think it's ugly.
