Hi Olivier,
Caolan - after the 'word count' victim dialog, it seems that the
extensions dialog has a foul nightmare of manual size calulation all
over it ;-) cf. the ~90 lines of:
desktop/source/deployment/gui/dp_gui_dialog2.cxx /Resize/
That also happen to do rather a bad job and defeat casual attempts to
improve them :-)

Makes sense; fair enough :-) lets just leave them for now

:-) the TWIPS based positioning should be font-size indeterminate.

Sure - but perhaps the ux-advisors will suggest something better to
hide the umpteen built in extensions by default (?) - that might be a
reasonable suggestion - I assume your users would prefer that too ?
I pushed your 2nd patch (thanks).
All the best,
Michael.
