[Qgis-developer] The new installer

[Denis Rouzaud]

Thanks for your replies.

This idea came out this morning mainly from the labelling gui, where I 
think the tree widget might be really useful. And I am wondering if a 
general mechanism of integrating dialogs in others by merging their left 
panels should be developed.

Otherwise, regarding the plugins settings in the main dialog, I got your 
point and I almost agree ;)

Thanks again,

Denis
