Hi Bastien & Marcel:

Here's the screenshots as requested:

Old: http://imagebin.org/27644

New: http://imagebin.org/27643

A lot of these MID devices don't have screens bigger than 1024x600
(some 800x600 depending on their aspect ratio).  This change really
just reorganizes the GUI so that both laptops and MID devices can use
the same layout.  I'm attaching an updated patch relative to 1.6.
    

Both versions would fit on both those screens. What's wrong with leaving
it as is? In the worst case, I'd move the contextual buttons to the side
of the treeview, instead of underneath, and add labels to those buttons.
  

The preferences dialog on an Eee PC (701) screen is a real pain, it is 
too big vertically.  800x480 screen, plus a window manager bar at the 
bottom, plus some chunky window decorations up the top.  For a window to 
fit conveniently on a standard Eee PC screen it needs to be 422 pixels 
vertically it looks like (the standard decorations are VERY chunky :)
