I see there is unavoidable problem with my "fake" button and
Accessibility tools which may happens. I planned to use it to emulate
gradient bottom bar (under Source List control), looks like in
Mail.app. I created three buttons, two gradient action-buttons and one
gradient non-clickable button with image aligned to right. This image
is a "three lines" which act as
additionalEffectiveRectOfDividerAtIndex: of NSSplitView. It looks
really nice but the fact that is a button...can it hurt people with
Accessibility devices?

Really, I don't like all these additional libraries that try to
emulate gradient bottom bar, because they redraw these controls by
itself, and I would like to use only Apple controls.
