Just one question.

Should there be a Help button in the preferences dialog?
When a user reaches this dialog he may want to consult the Help for further explanation about what he can change.

Most of the GNOME preference dialog have a Help button at the left of the button area.

Hi - here's a webrev to add a simple Preferences dialog to PM under Edit->Preferences.

http://cr.opensolaris.org/~jmr/pm_preferences_pylintFeb10/

6354 Add Preferences Dialog to PM
6389 Allow user to set find as you type to find on enter

It supports turning on/off:
- Show Startup Page on Startup and
- Enable type ahead searching (if its deselected user must hit return for search to be executed).

We are looking into the performance issues against large repos such as pending. The GtkTreeView refiltering algorithm is not scaling (#6354) and we need to see if we can address this for large datasets. In the meantime users can toggle the search behavior using the above preferences dialog, if they are experiencing problems.
