         + Problems faced - Abnormally large entries name in few
	   palettes.
         + Color Listbox size allocated according to the length of
	   longest entry.
             + color listbox wont be used in the new area, so not sure
		the issue (jay)
         + Example: 1. http://imgur.com/HcCjud1 (Increased size of Area
	   dialog).
         + Example: 2. http://imgur.com/j6mMjNd (Increased size of
	   shadow sidebar tab).
             + looks like a bug in the sidebar code, so isnt a problem
         + Work in progress: Replace the legacy color listbox with new
	   color selection widget.
      + Regressions reported :
         + Auto checkbox for gradient steps in gradient tab (quikee)
         + tdf#100907: Enable Background color checkbox for hatch tab
      + Bitmap tab:
         + Design finalized
         + Position offsets X & Y don't work for non tiled bitmap styles
            + Out of scope for GSoC (bubli)

   * Notebookbar (Szymon, Kendy, Samuel)
      + Intermeditate state switches tabs, (Heiko)
        + it's just an example of the opportunities, another UI file
	  would solve this (kendy)
        + UI files to test would be nice
      + Hidden toolbar sections implemented recently
