Re:  Closeview gripes.

1.  Need black-on-white alone feature
2.  Need a way to get rid of the annoying bounding box, while still
    supporting closeview.

These are exactly the complaints I had two months ago.  I wish Apple
would do something to make Closeview generally useful to the entire
population of users, rather than crippling it for handicapped people
only (weird policy -- crippling a tool for handicapped people).

When you think of the cost of distributing this tool with every system
release, I'm really surprised that Apple doesn't maximize the utility
and customer satisfaction that this tool provides, for ALL its
customers.  I realize the tool was written by Berkeley System Design,
but that's a lame excuse for doing nothing.

Well, Apple?
