I've added that patch.

It's not that bad (at least for the programmers). Even if you move the 
attribute list below the preview, it's still vpaned ;-)

The most interesting attributes (description, documentation) are quite 
long. They fit fine below the two other widgets.

I'm wondering whether we should just remove the table caption to save
