Hi Deloptes,
sorry for the late reply, I had a busy two weeks.
Tanks for the continuous work you are doing. Once you are happy enough, let us know and we will push your changes.
Please make sure to file a bug for each issue you are/want to address, so it does not get lost over time.
Keep it up :-)
Cheers
  Michele
