I don't have the time to check this as I should, but recalling from
memory, it had the same problem. I never mentioned it because you people
were busy constructing a different dialog. And when looking long and often
enough, one gets quite an educated guess of what should be there ;-)
However, if changeable, please do. If I'm doing something wrong locally,
please say so too, I don't get burned easily :-)

I can't follow up on this dialog for the next 3 days, so if I'm not
answering any more, you know why...
