Yes, exactly :-)

But if you don't mind, I suggest to exchange the second section (wonders)
with the third section (units) in the popup list(s).

This is for the case the list is too long and doesn't fit on the screen,
in advanced games and with a smaller screen. When the list is cut off 
then, it's the wonders missing, and not the units - most of the time you
change units, not wonders.

I know, this results in a small inconsistency with some other lists,
but I regard this minor against usability.

And, when you're on it ;) you might consider putting the coinage item 
separate, e.g. at the end of the improvements section.

Just now, when I'm looking deeper in it, I wonder why I overlooked
the change function in the city dialog and the worklist. But this
is probably a matter with the new city dialog.
