Hi, I just upgraded from Calibre 3 and I'm getting used to the new changes.
One thing that I haven't figured out yet is how to get the footer to look like the old one.

Notice how the position & clock on the left & right respectively are on the sides? Is there any way to make Calibre 4's viewer to look like that?

Here the position & clock take up extra space below the text. It seems better to place it in the empty space on the sides (provided there's no middle footer).

Also is there any way to remap the right click in the viewer to show the toolbar instead of the viewer controls? Like OnMouseRightClickEvent() {toggleToolbar();} or something? Or remap the right click to show the context menu, like in the old viewer. Whenever I was in full screen mode, I used right click -> quit to exit the viewer so that I didn't need to use the keyboard. Mouse for scrolling, mouse to exit full screen mode or quit.

Anyways those are the only two things that I'm not sure how to do with the new viewer. Other than this, it's been great. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
