I am even thinking of making the control software opensource, or at least publish the function of the pins on the microcontroller. So those far smarter than me can come up with some alternative coding and added functionality.

Ah a removable front fascia! So you could have a camouflage option (very Bushmaster) or perhaps glossy piano black (for me).

I wasn't at my usual desk so could only see I screen and some how had forgotten i could scroll down and see the thread - I couldn't remember what the power button was actually called - totally agree don't need both

It is probably too late for this to be implemented but the perceived problem with the naked LED's could be solved by recessing them behind a dark tinted bezel. This could work particularly well on the black Bushmaster and would have the added advantage of cutting down the glare from the blue LED's.
