When you press F11 and the address bar fades out gently, that is not smooth at all in my eeepc-701.
Under little workload (especially if the website i'm visiting has got heavy javascript) it takes ~5 seconds to finally fade out (leaving CPU for the website javascript for example).

So, why not to make like chrome do: instant switch and maybe no border at all.
The border eats some pixels that are important in a 800x640 screen. Or think of the new MID devices!
