Intervalometer text/counter in live view is way too large.

[gcrook]

Hi,i am actually a bit astounded noone has mentioned this,but the intervalometer counter in liveview is a bit too large and blocks a big area of the frame,being generally annoying, or sometimes hiding things
that had they been visible in the frame,they would call for a change in exposure,or stopping the timelapse and scrapping the sequence altogether etc etc.
There's always the case where the text can be changed or hidden and i haven't figured out how,in which case im a total moron and i sincerely beg your pardon. 
So is there any way we could have smaller text or it could be in some way embedded to another area of the live view?
Thank you.
