you have to ask by wxPython guys :-) AFAIK not in the separate window,
 but it could be possible to reorganize them in the gis manager
window..

it is just a proof of the concept kode. it is still not really usable.
I mean, most of the buttons are doing what they are supposed to do.
but the widgets-organization is not done yet.

from the user point of view: it should be abit nicer. from coder point
of view: faster and more powerful language (python) and GUI library
(wxWidgets). There are also bindings to OpenGL for future nviz
integration and so on.
