The only drawback is that sometimes it creates white artefacts when you move the mouse (see f.e. http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/4ac86473163c0b1e322343de1e4013262c2492ce.gif <http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/4ac86473163c0b1e322343de1e4013262c2492ce.gif> or http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/f8297ba9ee600c3d41114db96f56b00bb278ba4e.gif <http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/f8297ba9ee600c3d41114db96f56b00bb278ba4e.gif>) - not a big issue. Only minor annoyance.

Yes I saw those too but didn't spend any time trying to resolve them as they don't detract too much from the information being imparted I think.

See Matthias's entry "New configuration options for attribute table" - I have added a small example there. It would be great if you could use your favourite gif tool to make little animations of new features. If you need any help getting logged in / entry creation permissions, please pop me a note.
