Description Florian Priester CLA 2004-05-23 00:44:01 EDT 
In order to look like a native application (and resemble 2.1),
the R2.1 style presentation needs to put a lowered bevel border (SWT.SHADOW_IN)
around each status bar item. The separator lines that are currently used
should be removed.

This applies to both the IDE and RCP apps.

Okay, I'll mark this WONTFIX. While I would like to see Eclipse match the
appearance of other (native) applications when using the Windows Classic Theme,
applying the reasoning laid out in (the similar) bug 63567 comment #2 to this
report makes it seem unlikely that there will be a fix for the status bar issue.

(The best solution, really, would be to have SWT provide a native status bar
control (bug 88837) and then convince the Platform/UI team to use it.)
