I know about the usability issue. 

a) I would like to re-order the options for better usability.  The old and the new ones. 
(After we decided, what new option gets in and which not  - so that I only have to do it once)

b) I really would like to create a new UI - but my lisp skill are not good enough and rep-glade is still dead. 

But perhaps you, Andrea, Ferk and GSR (our great lisp hackers) can make a new UI for 1.3.5?

Does rep-gtk support Frame-Widgets? I'm pretty sure, but I haven't checked yet. 
That could solve our problem.
