Clock alarm recurrence graphics difficult to recognize

If you set up an alarm recurring every day, it very much looks like it is disabled for the weekend, as Mon through Fri are lit up and Sat/Sun are not. Comparing alarms with different recurrences shows that the enabled days are in fact not lit up but taller, and weekends are dimmed, but this is very very far from obvious or consistent — right in the same screen for overall enabling of alarms, and everywhere else in sailfish, the indicator for enabled/disabled is lit/dim, not shorter/taller.

Surely more recognizable indicators would use lit/dim for enabled/disabled. (And perhaps tall/short for weekday/weekend if someone feels strongly that such differentiation is required, can't say I do.)
