Spoil sport!

Seriously, yes the ui is looking cramped, which is why I would like to
advocate a hierarchal type interface for setting options.

To get the feeling of what I am suggesting fire up visual studio 7 (.net) -
navigate tools / options and there you have something which not only is
simple but fixes the problem.

As long as the options are organized people won't have any problem finding
them and it will be simple to add new ones.

I am not advocating that we go adding crap options just for the hell of it,
just that we need to re assess how we convey the options we do have to the
user.

I never really liked 'flat tabular' option style especially when you have
more than a handful of options - just makes the ui look like crap.
