Comment 44 for bug 703815

I've progressed a lot in the vala-port branch; you can see the blueprint for details and give the code a test run (it won't mess with current version).

I attach screenshot of the menu and the preferences dialog.
I've changed/added a lot of pieces, some of them are:
Forecast is by default in the menu. Google gives forecast for 4 days and Yahoo only 2 (This info is provided in the same report that provides the condition, so there is not any additional download).
The new carousel-like Location selector is always present and only shows the arrows when multiple locations are set.
The condition overview widget shows two rows (instead of 3) and a smaller icon (48 pixel size), I think it's much nicer this way.
The various condition fields can be set on the preferences dialog. Their values are aligned on the right per Felix' mockup. I too prefer it that way.
The complex "Sun" field can be quite long, so I think it's better to provide sunrise & sunset separately.
Arrows are used for wind direction and barometric pressure rising/falling status.
The menu is properly navigable by key/mouse (including the location selector arrows), only some elements can be clicked/activated and certain items do not dismiss the menu when clicked (like location switching & refreshing).

What do you think?
