[Tipp] Move Buff/Debuff icon location

Nice find, Enio.

Of course, as for the "fix for keybindings annoyance", it would be much better if NGD addressed this issue., by adding a way to place UI elements where we want (and save the position/size).

While i like the new UI look, and the extended spellbar, i think much more work is needed to make it more user friendly. As it is for now, it looks like more like a skin over the old UI (with some regressions, to be fixed soon i hope), than really new UI.

I was waiting:
- fully bind-able actions
- movable/re-sizable elements
- user-defined spell bar size (width and height in number of items)
- resolution-dependent elements (ie. spell bar buttons have same size in 800x600 and 2048x1600, which is wrong imho)
- consistent save/restore of dialog properties (ie. i have to resize chat dialog each time i log, i have to move again spell book when i press TAB twice, etc...)
- a much more efficient HUD, with important information
- a notification system for party/chat/clan requests
- lockable icons in spell bar

Once again i like the new UI (after last hot fix and regarding upcoming fixes), but i hope NGD will not stop here.
And in this sense i am worried the community is forced to find tricks to solve obvious usability issues.

It could be interesting to have NGD's official statement about UI future.
