The section heading 'Number Format' is the caption, which is why 'Category:' is
redundant. The dropdown has 10 entries in it and there are 5 buttons, so
buttons provide easy access to frequently used entries in the drop down without
opening it and the drop down provides a few more options which are less
frequent.

The sidebar isnt a hotkey driven interface, it is a mouse driven interface
IMHO.

So are you suggesting a 90° checkbox?
