Thomas,
I know the Setup Form has some issues, I said so myself,
but it's better than nothing.
It could use more options, (like choosing a couple of key
configurations, border color, frame thickness, etc.) but
putting it back unchanged is better than nothing.
You expressed unhappiness with the multiple files
it creates. That's dead simple to fix if you don't
like it. Personally, I prefer one file, I just did
it as multiple files because I assumed a user could
undo it.
My opinion.
