-------------------------------------

I guess it's coupled only with iphone 3 , which is obsolete for now - JBDS-2960,  and iphone 4 skins.

       The bottom bar might be hidden as well and also show along with the top bar, when user clicks on status bar.

     The bottom bar was added for iphone 3 / iphone 4 skins, cause there is no physical navigation buttons for those devices.

     That way user will see how it will look on the actual device, without any distraction

    Well, actually we don't treat bottom bar as a part of display (we do not hide anything from user with bottom bar, it doesn't affect display size). By design it was created as a part of *device*, not *display*. Reimplementing skin's layout is pretty intricate - need to crop skin images from the very beginning, both [horizontal|https://github.com/ibuziuk/jbosstools-browsersim/tree/master/plugins/org.jboss.tools.vpe.browsersim/src/org/jboss/tools/vpe/browsersim/resources/ios/iphone4/horizontal] and [vertical|https://github.com/ibuziuk/jbosstools-browsersim/tree/master/plugins/org.jboss.tools.vpe.browsersim/src/org/jboss/tools/vpe/browsersim/resources/ios/iphone4/vertical]. So, I do believe it's better to leave iphone 4 skin the way it is. I'm going to reject that issue, but I will keep in mind that  enhancement for upcoming skins ;-)

> The top bar is hidden by default and can be shown when user clicks on status bar. The bottom bar might be hidden as well and also show along with the top bar, when user clicks on status bar. That way user will see how it will look on the actual device, without any distraction.
