Ahh. No accounting for taste, then. :)

But the width of that dialog is really something else... and that behavior
does not happen on Mozilla or Netscape. Each of those paragraphs is one long
line, and Mozilla and Netscape wrap them. I think that's the correct thing
to do, whereas Konqueror shows them as 1 line that's just way too long.
