Ok, I have made an attempt. The columns now have the same width 
by default. Some comments:

1) I removed the "add" and "delete" pixmaps and used text indead. Pixmaps may be
nice but text is easier to understand.

2) I removed the arrow pixmap because it is hard to get the pixmap button and
the textfield left to it to use the same height.

3) I don't like that the left edge of the "assignment", "street" and
"contry" lineedits move to the right when the dialog is made wider. Some
redesign is needed avoid that.

and yes, the initial/minimum size of the dialog is somehow wrong. I have not
looked into that yet.
