Richard Pollock: ‘That Stupid “Lozenge” Button’

Richard Pollock:

So basically, I would like rid of that horribly inconsistent lozenge button, but would love to see more uses of NSToolbar around Mac OS X.

The Finder’s use of the tic-tac button as a toggle between Aqua and brushed metal window styles is the single weirdest UI design in all of Mac OS X. Probably not the worst, but the weirdest.
