I noticed something today while fiddling with XBMC... if one disables all viewtypes but one, a few features are lost, such as the ability to view the background fanart by double clicking DOWN, the media flags in the StripShow viewtype, the scrollbar in the Shift viewtype, etc. On the other hand, if the Posters viewtype is activated as well, then everything is fine. Similarly, if Showcase is activated, some things work, others don't. Obviously these problems are caused due to the fact that Posters and Showcase contain some of the code used by other viewtypes.

The simplest way to fix this is to just leave the Posters viewtype always on. So perhaps there should not be an option of disabling it in the skin menu. This, of course, provided no better solution is available. Just a thought...
