Hello everyone :).

I'm sorry to say that : the idea is very good, but the realisation is 
quite ugly, this big border really don't fit with the smooth interface.

There are different ways to do this, I've mocked up one quickly so you 
can see what can be achieved :

I'm not really sure yet about this have to be round like I've done, or 
with a straight separation, but it fits and remains usable, don't you 
think ?
