 Vector Properties dialog - Labels tab - minor problems:

 1. the Preview area does not show the current font and color settings on
 entering the dialog. This is confusing as it will change if the font
 dialog is canceled.

 2. on entering the dialog, Buffer is the selected options panel, but is
 not indicated in the list. I believe that Font should be the selected one
 and be so indicated.

 3. when the color buttons for Font or Buffer are used, if the Select Color
 dialog is  Canceled the current color for the item changes to black.

 4. on entry to the dialog, if the the Buffer labels? control is off, the
 Buffer size, Color, and Buffer size units controls are enabled. They
 should be disabled. Toggling Buffer labels? on, then off sets the
 controls' state as expected.

 5. the Buffer Transparency control has no effect. It should be disabled if
 the feature is not currently available. This control is disabled
 initially, but is enabled after turning on label buffering.

 6. How does the "Multiline labels?" control relate to buffering labels? It
 seems to me that this control should be placed somewhere else related to
 labels generally.

 Tested with Windows and Linux.
