Thanks Calum, Since my brother, Behnam 'ZWNJ' Esfahbod, have been playing with gucharmap recently, and tweaking the About dialog and other UI too, I will leave it to him to work on the UI review with you. He's on a trip to the end of the weekend, but I belieave 17UTC suits him almost every day. CCed.
