A Modest Proposal Concerning the Black Bar on Hacker News
It might be helpful to be able to hover over the black bar at the top of Hacker News (when it is present) to get a simple tooltip explaining why it is there. This should reduce the number of questions on AskHN related to wondering why it is there. My 2 cents. :)
