* In the main entry list, backup entries are now rendered with green text color.
* Menus are now rendered with gradient item backgrounds.

* Added {GOOGLECHROME} placeholder, which is replaced by the executable path of Google Chrome, if installed.
* Added '--auto-type' command line option.
* Added '--lock-all' and '--unlock-all' command line options to lock/unlock the workspaces of all other KeePass instances.
* Added 'KeeConfigFileOverrideGlobal' and 'KeeConfigFileOverrideUser' configuration options to change the locations of the configuration files.
* On Windows 7, KeePass now shows a 'locked' overlay icon on the taskbar button when the database is locked.
* On Windows 7, when opening/saving a database, the taskbar button is now animated using an indeterminate progress bar.
