Yes, this is nice. One thing though, horizontal dialogs seem a bit less
disturbing to me.. if everything is vertical i get intimidated by the
sheer number of things to set.
So.. even with widgetgrid, things could go into width instead hight a
little bit more.

GTK/QT migration should probably done on window-by-window basis, or even
first just migrating some dialogs. However, i am not thinking right now
of doing anything even remotely similar.

i/o formats and usability are my current work area.
