This is a tiny, tiny request, but basically if a video is paused, it is impossible (at least on the default skin) to minimise the info panel, as far as I can tell.
There is really only one reason that I want this - so I can read the Chuck Lorre text at the end of episodes of The Big Bang Theory, but I'm sure other people have found it frustrating if they want to pause on a particular point only to find the bottom 25% of the screen is obscured.
