[master] Final UI adjustments for Unity

We're tracking that queue of bugs btw: http://bit.ly/bC0avM

Has there been any development in this bug? It was mentioned on the translators list some time ago, and I'm wondering if it implies modifications to translations.

If it doesn't, it's fine, but if it does, we should remember to give translators time to actually translate any new strings, as we're past UI freeze and the translation deadline is drawig closer.

Thanks!

I don't think we're expecting string changes now, David, so folks can
relax and chase what's there for release.

Since the Beta Freeze, 4 weekly cuts have been made, each fixing a long list of issues:
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/2010-09-02 (7 bugs fixed)
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/2010-09-09 (15 bugs fixed)
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/2010-09-16 (40 bugs fixed)
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+milestone/2010-09-22 (31 bugs fixed, and still counting)
totaling 93+ bug fixes

This bug carries a UI change notice. UNE / Unity is not covered by the Ubuntu documentation, so does not require a formal UIF hack as far as i can tell from the process overview.

That's a pretty fantastic beta program result, thanks to a lot of bug
reporting, triaging and *nailing* all round.
