Default enabling resizing the speedometer

There's an option to change the font size to a custom choice,
which is great because I ain't got super sight as you do so I need to size it up a lil
but unfortunately the font resizing isn't involved for the speedometer, which is quite bad because I like to limit it to my limit speed wihch is about 333kb\s, and then I can see in the graph the srate depend to the real maximum and not depend to the last minute average.
It gives me a better information for how good is the downloading speed.
but sometimes I download from crappy sites that their download rating is about 10-50kb..
So what I get is like a very very low line that I barely see.
And without changing the limit I would want to see the changing speed but it is so tiny that I can not see.
That is why I want to size it up.
Any way I got very big free space at the toolbar so it can't hurt
also the speedometer is pretty short, so I'm missing things that have been in the farther past.
And its kinda waste because there is such a big space that I could use it for it.

Heres as simple sketch that I made (I'm using hebrew version):

Why don't you look at the "Downloadspeed" indicator at the bottom of the jD window? You might be able to resize that.

1) With the next release, will the speedometer on the InfoBar be resizable? If not, the bar is of little use.

2) Reordering and resizing the toolbars should be supported (at least eventually). Please do not mention "Ribbons" as an alternative. They are several steps back in terms of user interfaces. In fact, what they really are is a horizontal menu that opens a two dimensional toolbar instead of a menu. They are not very useful if they cannot be customized.

3) The advantage is the same as the advantage of resizing the graph in the Progress column.

4) The Downloadspeed indicator is not related to this question.

Add a resizable floating bar option (like the InfoBar), just for the Speedometer

To those who're running a firewall.

Most firewalls have a graphical presentation of incoming and outgoing traffic. Isn't this type of info more interesting than the information provided by only one application?
