The drop-down list content that is displayed contains a grey strip all the way down the left-hand edge, which is overwritten with the selection highlighting, which looks a little odd (just cosmetic). I think that dark-grey vertical strip is there because it is copied from the player selection control on the main page, which usually contains a dot to indicate which player is currently selected, but it is meaningless to have that in the settings page (also doesn't display the dot next to the currently selected player within the player settings page drop-down list)? The advanced selection widget defaults to the "Formatting" page. I'm wondering if there should be a label next to that control to describe what it is. It may not be obvious that there are many different settings pages that can be navigated to from that control.
