So it autodetects such apparatus? Can't the config module be disabled if you 
don't have such thing then? Or replaced by an informative text that explains 
that it is only for people with such apparatus. (Coolo: will there be a 
temporary lift of the stringfreeze after 3.2.0 to correct such issues?)

Sounds good. Maybe you can move "Auto-populate" aka "Add options" to a row of 
its own, that would put a little less stress on the horizontal width 
requirements.

The germans will probably need this since they will without doubt translate it 
as "Automatischebevolkerungsauftragfunktion" or something equally lengthy ;-)

Cheers,
Waldo
