 ## TODO
 
-- Allow hiding of the app icon (not sure this is a good idea, tho…pls discuss in an issue!)
-- Add Cmd-1, -2, -3, (etc) key equivalents in the menu bar for fast selection (one reason why ^^ might not be a good idea)
 - Clean up the icon (which is "dial" by IconMark from the Noun Project). This means having it look better in the menu bar in dark/light mode _including_ the highlight mode for it. Possibly means getting a visible "R" on it somewhere.
 - Better/prettier alerting (which also means more sanity checks)
-- <strike>Add an "about" box (mostly to ensure IconMark gets more credit than a comment and README)</strike>
