well, to make you a bit more happy. EVERY dialog I have touched (and that is not
few) use those values :) It was alot worse in KDE 1.x. When you say everybody,
do you refer to dialogs in the libs (which one), or in apps?

and yes, If one use KDialogBase for new dialogs, the outer spacing (margin)
and the spacing between action buttons will use the correct values
automatically.
