I agree about the labels. Please fix them. I would like to see how you do
it. I also don't like the way the widget resizes as you change things but
I didn't know how to fix them without putting in a lot of "set_usize("
calls. If I do that the dialog does work for people who use large fonts in
their GTK themes. Vlad was quite insistent about this.

Go ahead and do it provided it does not mess up on large fonts in GTK.

PS. I want to make one small change to dialog so that when you start it on
a region without a list and you choose a list type, the dialog immediately
shows a preview of the new list type.
