Known issues

• small width is not supported (style gets ugly)
• modals (path change/pattern change) don't close on cancel (clicking somewhere/pressing ESC)
• a button to clear the filter field is missing
• tests should run on blur of filter field
• doesn't scroll down automatically
• action bar is ugly (could be replaced by defining actions with shortcuts)
• watch doesn't fire on newly created files. To watch these, unwatch+watch must be clicked needs a new feature in atom. So no watch on freshly compiled files, watch the source instead.
• doesn't close on close of window (watcher is still active)
• doesn't work well, when opened in two atom instances simultaneous
