Hmm. I'm not quite ready to give up modeless yet. I think Mikes objections
can be addresed in a Modless dialog but right now I want to fix Valds bug,
make the preview wider in your improved dialog and generally improve the
GUI behaviour. No radical changes. Just fixes.
Then I have to mark some exams.
I'm on irc.gnome.org#abiword if you guys would like to join for a real
