While you're on it: I always wondered why a Spacer "button" on the
preview titlebar looked different from the one in the button selection.
It's "< >" in the selection vs. "|" on the preview. It might be a good
idea to use only one icon for that. In case the "< >" has once been
chosen to give the user an impression of what a spacer may actually do,
maybe a description next to the "Spacer" title in the button selection
would be appropriate. A spacer's not even a button, it's an item with a
special function which in my opinion deserves a special description.

Another thing: when dragging a button and letting it float over the
preview titlebar one doesn't get any feedback about where it is going to
be dropped. A live preview showing where the button is to be dropped
should take care of that.
