Sure, that's been on the list for a while now. Max has mentioned this
too.

This option 2 was the one I have been meaning to implement. I figured
if the display was set to double height it was because it was far
enough away that it needed to be that size to be readable, so perhaps
setting it back to 2 lines/single height wouldn't be appropriate.

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to do that one too. That's all easy enough
now. You could even do it outside of the SlimServer Conduit (I like
that :) using the SlimServer extensions to the Audio Control schema,
which already support that. It would be nice to integrate it into the
one place however so I'll sort it out.

I would've done this tonight but I got heavily sidetracked hunting
down some obscure CDs from the past few years. The Internet is an
amazing resource. How could we do without it now?
