Hello,
I have a few suggestions for changes in the calibre UI and I would like to know if someone have any opinions on them.

1. Background for the Cover view, IMO calibre looks much better with a background. What background do you think would be the best as default for calibre, if there was one?

2. Hide/show the search bar in the main window for saving space when not needed. It could be done with a hide/show icon next to the other hide/show icons in the bottom left of the main window.

3. Move the show/hide icons to the search bar and remove the status bar. I think the icons would fit in the search bar because the search field doesn't need to be as long as it is now and the text "calibre X.XX was created by Kovid Goyal" could be in the window title.
