We found the box! It's made of dark wood, and is about the size and shape of the bottom drawer of desk. It has a hinged lid.

The note about the style was more of a note-to-self than anything else - I know everyone's been working on Core2. When everything else is done then there will be time to look at such things. At that time (when people are working on cosmetic glitches) I'll go back to my notes, see if they've been fixed, and if not compile a list of whatever I've found from now till then.
