Sorry, but this is an error: it cripples some important functionality in The 
Bat!, and can even cause data loss. (I have linked the AppDB entry for The Bat! 
to this bugzilla entry, even though it seems it hasn't been accepted yet.)

As shown by some of the screenshots posted to the AppDB entry, /all/ icons in 
The Bat! appear as black or gray silhouettes. This is not just an aesthetical 
problem: The Bat!'s Message Dispatcher allows the user to choose what to do 
with very message on the server: retrieve, delete, open. For each message there 
are three checkboxes, one for each function, but currnetly it's impossible to 
tell which ones are checked and which ones are not, meaning that you may 
inadvertently delete a message from the server without storing it, thereby 
causing *data loss*. In fact, I make extensive use of the Message Dispatcher, 
and I've been bitten by this issue a couple of times. Although I've been able 
to prevent the data loss by crash-terminating The Bat! before it could actually 
delete the messages from the server, I'm sure you understand this should not be 
normal way of operation :)

So yes, this is a bug, and it's also rather important. I actually think the 
severity should be upped to major because of the data loss possibility.
