This indeed is an area of concern. Thus, despite this alternative layout that reflects some of the feedback received on the original design - http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/brussels/Documentation/feedback/ - there is still the feeling that the original layout gave the best compromise to accommodate both Boolean options and the multiple choice options. Maybe Jenya (GUI designer) can add more to this comment? We're still trying to gather more comments from more administrators to have an idea of what direction best to take.
