Remove the column headers from Journal gtk.treeview:

	http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1278

Remove the column headers from Home list view's gtk.treeview:

	http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1279

When started the first time, the date column has another colour:

Journal, when hitting esc after editing a title of an entry, a white  
focus ellipse is shown:

Home list view changes in focus (tab) cause a white focus ellipse is  
shown

Journal title editing unexpected behaviour requires two clicks to edit:

OK, thanks for the heads up, if it's sticking around I'll make sure I  
spend bug hunting time on it.
