Complex yet fun, and loving it! A few bugs

Wow, I've just come out of CM 10.1 KANG to try out this rom and must admit it is a very complex build indeed, offering a load of fun and learning. Perhaps someone can refer me a few "user-level" links to some of the features implemented, like HALO, Hybrid Settings, PIE, Navigation Ring, and Ribbons - I don't know what those are.

I deeply THANK the cookers for this rom rendition, and hope we can make it more and more perfect over time. Just with half a night of tinkering, I offer the following feedback, and anxiously await your comments and guidance:

- Email cannot be searched - BIG BIG loss! Search button doesn't do anything while in email, unlike while in SMS, Contacts, etc. CM suffered the very same problem, and this was one of my main reasons to try out this rom; Is this a global AOSP issue?

- SMS/MMS delivery notifications are not being issued; I'm remembering from the time of ICS, where a brief pop-up with beep was issued over the status bar, stating "...successfully delivered...".

- I was sooo very happy that the SMS input window could be increased from the default of 3 lines; 160 chars easily takes up 5 lines and I love being able to see/edit my entire composition easily and without having to scroll into a really tiny area;

- Font/font size used for app dock icons and in several other places also is too small and hence a little jaggy/unclear; can this be altered? Changing the display font from default to large is not the true solution, that messes everything else up!

- Standard (discharging) battery icon looks fine, but while on charge, the lightning flash symbol in the middle is almost not discernible; is this perhaps a side effect of the tiny font used above?

- If PIE is the same as LMT (I had installed this on my CM as an add-on app), I cannot get it to launch; is it opened up from the edges?

- Homescreen gestures do not seem to work - swiping up after setting its action does nothing; this feature was also a part of LMT, with LMT offering both single and two finger gestures;

- I miss the "Lock Homescreens" item from the main menu, to prevent accidental changes once you're happy with your homescreens layout;

- The built-in APN's cannot be viewed or edited; while I was pleased that the rom detected my carrier (StraightTalk)) and constructed a default APN for it (which seems to work right off the bat), I would prefer being able to edit rather than have to create a brand new APN to make any changes commissioned by the carrier. Yes, StraightTalk already did that once this summer, and interestingly, the settings for my region had to be different from the global APN settings they post on their website.

I am feverishly playing with the ROM today to look at many other aspects, and will happily report further findings. Happy flashing! About the flashing, while it was a piece of cake for me (using WCX recovery), I have found one anomaly - my HTC Vivid, even though it is truly S-OFF, still requires boot.img to be flashed manually, every time. This is in spite of the popular and contradictory commentary on this matter on various Vivid JB forums including this one. It seems like a lot of people are affected.
