The overall plan is to get away with as few buttons as possible,  
especially because that dialog could get cramped from space pretty  
easily. I'm not sure exactly which buttons will stay/go right now, so  
I'm just going to continue coding and make simplifications when the  
opportunity pops up.

Rather than having save/load buttons, the XML will save automatically  
when you hit OK. Perhaps I should make a QTextEdit box for the mapping  
name or something so you can rename what the mapping is going to be  
called. I don't think we want to let users overwrite the stock XML  
mapping files either. Yeah, so there's a bunch of smaller design  
issues here, but we'll hopefully be able to address them once we get  
more functionality laid down.

(... but let's not forget about these.) :)

Thanks,
Albert
