Pownce AIR App Possible Bugs & Weirdness?

Some weirdness I've noticed with the Pownce AIR app on my macbook:

If there is a scrollable visible window behind the app - i.e. a browser window or the itunes library - when scrolling with the track pad through the pownce app, whatever is running in the back will scroll up and down as well.

When scrolling UP with the trackpad, the scroll often gets stuck or stops multiple times on the way up. I think this has to do with it 'catching' on some Pownce updates that appear with a hard return or two of extra space in the update - so its trying to scroll up the app and biting on the individual updates to scroll through them.
Maybe a change to the way in which the app displays or formats the text will fix this? Dunno.
This is not a problem when scrolling down OR if you scroll up quickly (a hard push with two fingers to get to the top). Also, using the up/down buttons or the scroll bar on the app does not cause any problems.

A single tap of the trackpad to click on the minimize button does not shrink the app; instead the app will wait for the next tap or click anywhere in the window and from that input shrink to the dock. Perhaps related - where on the app you place this second click will determine the rough screen coords at which the window maximizes which clicked from the dock

If you tab away from the app after applying the single click and tab back in, the app is hidden from view on screen and can be recalled by using any display hotkey/hotcorners you have set up. Clicking on the dock icon will not restore it in this state.

Single trackpad tapping the close app button causes different problems:
Sometimes a single click will result in the app disappearing from screen but remaining open in the dock, dropping to the dock and quitting the app from there then quits the app appropriately.
At other times the single click will clear the app from screen but quitting from the dock will not be effective and a force quit is required.
And finally, sometimes the single click works perfectly and pownce takes a nap.

These trackpad-tap related issues do not occur if you single click using the trackpad button itself

I have yet to try this on the windows app via my bootcamp slice or on my PC.

How much of this is the AIR infrastructure and how much is the app, I obviously can't say, also you guys might be all over this stuff, but I figured if Pownce is gonna grow its gotta work - and I like Pownce - so hopefully this isn't late-to-the-party news and it'll help
