Current status of Repeat and Shuffle can be changed but not observed from the Now Playing Screen #4

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Press Shuffle Toggle ',' or Repeat Toggle '.' from now playing screen
2. Nothing changes on the UI
3. Album may play out of order or a track may repeat, hard to know what will 
happen without going into the settings screen and looking closely at the text 
below the shuffle and repeat icons (in HD Grid skin).

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I want to see some status information in the "now playing" screen that 
indicates where I am in the Shuffle state machine (off, Song, Album) and Repeat 
(off, Song, Playlist). I'd prefer it to be graphical than text based, but text 
would be better than nothing, which is what I currently see.

I know it was a design decision to make the Now Playing screen less busy by 
removing the transport icon row, but I feel having controllability without 
observability of the Repeat and Shuffle functions is a UI problem that needs to 
be addressed at some point.

Can you attach your version of the HDSkin with this change?

Here is a patch against the current version of HDGridSkinApplet.lua. Some of 
the changes are redundant, such as resizing the volume control, which doesn't 
get get displayed anymore.

This patch is against the conventional (non-grid) HD skin and omits the 
unwanted volume control resizing.
