It's a little different - things have diverged over time IIRC. In trying

Possibly, in fact there is meant to be an automatic horizontal
scrollbar, which I think isn't being triggered now because of the size

Nope, I've got his mail in my inbox still. My first set of goals is
usability - cause that's what tends to generate 1000's of emails.
The occasional thing being uninstalled or reinstalled by mistake is
