I just installed this, and I find it very useful. I have the following suggestions to further improve user experience: (i) Ability to open the minimized widget by merely pointing the cursor at it, instead of the need to click on it; (ii) Ability to zoom in/out using the mouse scroll button, instead of the need to click followed by drag and drop (to move the slider)
