That's a good idea. The dialog is pretty small, and already lists the keys,
so adding some explanatory text should be easy. I'll investigate.

Adding a "Change View" dialog, or enhancing one of the existing dialogs would
be very straightforward - especially as I've already got most of the Nasal code

I'll take a look.
