Make the "Add Gadgets" button less obvious

In the nice slick UI that I have in front of me, the "Add Gadgets" button
(and next page buttons) are rather lame looking... maybe you can make it so
we tick a box and they go away, and then to add gadgets you just right click
the taskbar icon!

I know, I know... late in the game - but it detracts from the sidebars
simple look/feel.

Why not take the gadgets that you want to still display, off of the sidebar,
and then close the sidebar to the system tray? (right-click on the sidebar,
and select "close sidebar".) This will hide the sidebar, but will still
allow you to right-click the taskbar icon to add new gadgets.
