Sorry to warm it up again, but i was even looking into the fdom tarball 
and trying out the themes, but i didn't find anything useful.
the qwerty button is no problem, but the wrench is (as already said, the 
config dialogs are missing/outside of the screen).
did anyone suceed in building a theme that features a working wrench?
i don't know why i am suddenly so keen on this.
