Can't reproduce this, works for me. Is ~/.pgadmin3 write protected or
sth like that?

Do we need that?

Shouldn't be, sounds like you use a version with wxWindows 2.4. There
have been major fixes for correct font sizing in 2.5.

By design.

This is for the sql tool window only, to obtain monospaced display for
Latin languages, and other for non-Latin. It's effective as soon as the
options dialog is closed with OK.

It's a matter of taste; IMHO you're right. Are there other votes about
this? Who contributes other bitmaps?

This is a problem, because the grid fills on-demand, so we don't know
which size we will need until a row is actually displayed.

This is a misleading gtk behaviour I also noticed. For win32, a right
click will also mark the underlying node, gtk doesn't. I'll change this.

I don't think so, we all prefer big desktops.
