Both of those bugs refer to explantory text in brackets after a sentence in dialogs (it definately looks kind of ugly), specifically in Gnome Terminal. I think rephrasing to take things out of brackets would help, possibly reorgansing the interface to be more self explanatory. Since these are essentially tips it would make sense to put them in tooltips. (Which is pretty much what dobey said.) It would be a shame of Gnome Terminal was unable to follow the style of other Gnome applications but it is something of a special case. -- Alan
